All of 2nd grade.
I know, but I wish I could go back in time. All the cute little bumble bees & honey bees just doing their thing & working so hard 😩😭🥺.
After awhile, one recess had JUUUST started & us gurls & guys ran out to the fields where the flowers were, & i juuuuuuat barely had walked up to the area when all the sudden a bee flew straight up to my ear like a maniac & I screamed & then somehow the bee flew down to my hand, was in my hand & stung me between 2 fingers.
I cried & cried & cried & never went out to the bees & the health nurses told me that even though I thought bees were mean for stinging, they were just going grocery shopping & I was keeping the bees from going home with their honey groceries.
That changed my ENTIRE perspective on bees & bugs for LIFE.
Now I look at bees & I’m like “AWWWwwwww look at em working so hard!! :) <333 I hope those flowers have lots of good pollen for the hive!”
Lol I’m all researching best flowers that bees like that aren’t hard to grow.
I should buy some land & make 2 big rows of JUST rhododendron bushes which are practically just bee bushes of HEAVEN. Lol SOOO many bees.
Anyways that’s my guilt. I feel like I was a cruel child from Toy Story going out & killing poor bumble bees & honey bees (prolly wasps & hornets too but I don’t care about them) & did irreparable harm to the bee population.
I was a young Beatrice from Kill Bill just trying to get her revenge.

I have just finished my second year, I have had a difficult year personally and have missed many lectures/seminars due to having major surgery earlier in the year. I was granted EC’s on a couple of assignments that were due on or around the day of my surgery. I suspect that after my re-sits I will be looking at about a low 2.1 for the year. I know it’s all dependent on how hard you work but do grades generally improve or fall between 2nd and 3rd year? What’s your personal experience? Thanks

Ive been looking at times on the living science / student village websites, never have I ever seen a free apartment. My most important question is: Will it change in the course of the next months? And Is it worth waiting for one of these student dorms, they do look very fancy tho. Ive also read, that the monthly rent lies somewhere between 500-800, whereas 500 CHF minimum seems to be insanely cheap, is it even possible? Thanks to anyone replying :))

just wanted to ask how you guys made it that far. we've been together for a year and lately, it's getting harder for me. top love language ko ay quality time, physical touch at words of affirmation. ekis na agad si physical touch diyan. medyo busy bf ko sa work lately since madaming changes na nangyayari sa career nya. nag-uupdate naman sya kung ano ginagawa nya, sino kasama, at saan. so andun pa rin yung assurance. kaso we have lesser time to talk dahil ang dami nyang ganap. naiintindihan ko naman and i highly respect his personal time. kaso hindi maiiwasang hindi malungkot. feeling ko nagiging 2nd option nalang ako - o di kaya nasa huli pa nga ng listahan. hindi na kami nagmo-movie date, video call, naglalaro ng magkasama o kahit anong activites na sabay. pagkatapos ng trabaho namin nag tetext lang kami tas maglalaro na sya sa phone o sa pc nya. kahit weekends kung kelan kami free hindi rin. kahit holidays pa. minsan, napapaisip ako what if tigilan nalang namin? ang hirap kasi naiintindihan ko talaga sitwasyon nya ngayon at nirerespeto ko din personal time nya. ayoko din syang sakalin o pwersahan sya na ibigay nya oras nya sakin. gusto ko yung kusang loob syang mag-initiate. kaso di ko napapansin yung initiative na yon at lumi-liit oras naming mag-usap. ako nalang palagi nagi-initiate.
kaya gusto kong malaman kung pano kayo nakarating nang ganito ka layo? ano iniisip niyo? ano ginagawa niyo?

if this was your child’s second time being encouraged to go to summer school would you have them evaluated by a doctor to see if they have a learning disability?
my child is going into 2nd grade and her teacher suggested summer school to prevent her from falling behind so she will be attending. but should i be getting her screened for a potential learning disability? she has some signs of adhd and i know it presents differently in girls. her test scores are her downfall but otherwise knows most of the material. i hate to write it off as just test taking anxiety.

2nd year just ended, actively looking for intern opportunities in data science and ml engineer roles Pls list out all the job posting platforms which you guys used for applying for jobs and internships Also do share if anyone of you have any intern opportunities in my field, I'll share my resume with you in dm Thanks

Units to rerun before Acheron: Argenti, Huohuo, Ruan Mei, Dr. Ratio, Black Swan, Sparkle
2.3 Firefly and Jade banners (It has been speculated/leaked by various questionnable and reliable sources that Ruan Mei and Argenti will get their reruns within this patch)
2.4 Jiaoqiu and (Possibly: Feixiao, Yunli, Screwllum) banners (Huohuo and Dr. Ratio rerun, however I do not find any reason why hoyoversw will rerun Dr. Ratio as he is a free unit obtainable from the start of 2nd phase of 1.6 to the end 2.1. I see little to no profit from having him rerun, hence why I speculate that he will be pushed further back which leads us to the next unit to rerun which is Black Swan.)
2.5 Unknown and Unknown Banners (I speculate that the next units to rerun is Sparkle and Acheron. Both units are highly popular and wanted by numerous players, especially the players who have yet to pull for sparkle or will be pulling for eidolons or lightcones of both units.)
Let me know your opinions abt this because if this happens Jiaoqiu will only be a patch before both of them and peraonally it will be hard for me to guarantee Jiaoqiu, Sparkle, Acheron (Pulling for my missing E2).
Note: Looking at the trend where units who are popular or meta units are moved forward by a patch earlier than they should by like Jingliu and possibly Ruan Mei, they might do the same.
All the information stated are just based on my speculation and I find it likely to happen as it was also possible to push back luocha rerun by numerous patches.

Sam Houston State University College of Osteopathic Medicine has had an unprecedented start since its founding in 2019. It currently sits as the 2nd cheapest DO school in the country by Cost of Attendance just after TCOM. SHSU's inaugural graduating class had a 100% match rate with a decent share of competitive matches-especially for a brand new school (see link below). SHSU became the first and ONLY new COM to be awarded "Accredidation with Exceptional Outcomes" which is COCA's highest level of accredidation that only 12 COM's currently hold, the two most recent additions were established 17 years ago. This grants SHSU-COM 10 years of accredidation which has never been granted to a new COM. SHSU-COM is the 7th public COM and the first to be created with legislative support since 1977. It has the financial and administrative support of the 3rd oldest university in Texas, SHSU. It currently holds the number 1 spot for average board pass rate, and has a top 3 rank in first time pass rate from this past year. Sam Houston recently broke ground on a new health science center that will share a parking garage with the COM housing a PA school, PT school, and various Master's programs. The school has already opened a handful of residency programs, and has stated their main focus for the next several years will be to expand residency access in East Texas.
Sam Houston State University means business. If you are a Texas applicant you should consider keeping Sam Houston on your radar, especially if you are from the Houston area. https://www.shsu.edu/academics/osteopathic-medicine/divisions/educational-affairs/accreditation https://www.atsu.edu/faculty/chamberlain/website/comlex-level-1-pass-rates.htm#rank
Disclaimer: Yes I am a current student at Sam and I am proud of my school. I really believe in SHSU's mission and I think very highly of our faculty and my fellow students. I am graduating soon and felt compelled to hype up my school just a little bit because I think its a special place. The comparison to TCOM in my title was a little tongue in cheek, TCOM is an incredible school with a decades long track record of being great.

Muhammad drew inspiration for his new religion from the Jewish faith and incorporated various rituals and teachings. However, in a political move aimed at appeasing the Arab pagans, he also integrated the rituals of Hajj into Islamic Sharia.
The rituals of Hajj extended beyond animal sacrifice alone. There existed additional practices such as making cuts on the humps of camels, smearing blood on animals during the journey, and adorning their necks with strings of shoes.
Following the practices of the polytheistic Arabs, Muhammad included these rituals as part of Islamic Sharia.
Sahih Muslim, Book of Pilgrimage:
Ibn 'Abbas reported that Allah's Messenger observed the Zuhr prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa; then called for his she-camel and marked it (made a cut) on the right side of its bump, removed the blood from it, and tied two sandals around its neck (as garland).
Is it not an act of ignorance to adorn animals with strings of shoes? Why would Allah, the creator of not just the earth but the entire universe, require animals for sacrifice to be decorated with footwear?
Furthermore, what kind of intelligence is displayed by harming a living creature and considering it a symbolic act? Why subject animals to the humiliation of wearing shoe necklaces and causing them harm?
This practice was so lacking in wisdom that today many Muslims are abandoning it, despite it being considered an established "Sunnah of the Prophet."
Even Abu Hanifa, a renowned Islamic scholar, rejected this practice of Muhammad due to its cruelty. He refused to follow this Sunnah and claimed it to be a MUTILATION (مثلة) of animals.
Jami` at-Tirmidhi, Hadith 906:
Ibn Abbas narrated: "The Prophet garlanded two sandals and marked the Hadi (i.e. camel) on the right side (i.e. by cutting its hump) at Dhul-Hulaifah, and removed the blood from it." … Imam Wak’i told that the Prophet of Allah did al-Isha’ar (i.e. making a cut in the hump of camel), but Imam Abu Hanifa said that it was mutilation (مثلة) of an animal's body. One man said that Imam Ibrahim Nakhi’i also called al-Isha’ar to be mutilation. Upon hearing that, Wak’i became angry and said: “I am telling you the Sunnah of the holy prophet, but you tell me what Ibrahim Naki’i said. I deem it permissible to imprison you and not set you free till you abandon telling people (about the saying of Ibrahim Nakhi’i i.e. it is mutilation of an animal).Grade: Sahih (Authentic) Darussalam.

Hi everyone,
I'm finishing up my sophomore year in college right now as a biochemistry and computer science double major (will probably drop the CS major to a minor). I won't lie, I have not been super proactive during the past 2 years with my premed stuff. I currently have a 3.756 GPA that most likely will not improve much with this semester's grades and currently is not trending upwards. I haven't gotten involved with a ton of clubs (actually just 1 which is a job now) and just secured a research position for the summer, which is my first research experience in college. I don’t have any volunteer hours at the moment and I missed the window to apply for a CNA course at my local CC so I'm scrambling to find clinical opportunities I can juggle at the same time as my research. Overall, I'm just super stressed that I'm too late to the med school game, especially because I have a lot of pressure from family to make it to a T20 school.
Any advice on how to improve my overall application and keep my grades up? And also how to deal with familial pressure because I know my chances for a T20 are slim to none. Thanks in advance :)
Edited to add: my sGPA is currently 3.7

I have a few cremators. A B25Dur, an AA2525, a J50cDur, instigating with shitty 2nd and 3rd.
I consistently see absolutely awful and incorrect information said about the Cremator, and what is and is not effective.
The most egregious that I’ve seen, aside from the quad barrel supposedly being the best barrel (it’s not), is that instigating is one of the best rolls on a Cremator.
Instigating is one of the worst possible rolls you can get on a Cremator. It is functionally useless.
Now, at this point, some of you are thinking “this guy is wrong, instigating applies to the DoT so it’s great”. Wrong.
If you have a slow burn mod on your Cremator, that DoT is killing any trash mob in the game in one hit, instigating or not. The only benefit instigating has is that the mobs die slightly faster from the DoT. You’re one shotting them regardless.
So there you go, worthless on trash.
Then, on bosses, sure you’re going to get a nice chunk of damage to start if you land the first shot. If you land the first shot. Otherwise, it’s functionally a two star for the entire fight.
Feel free to try to make an argument proving me wrong here, but from my testing literally the only situation where an instigating Cremator is better than literally any other roll, is when fighting some mid tier enemy like a Scorchbeast.
It is worse, or at the least not actually better, in every single other scenario.
Join me for my next talk on why you should be using the heavy barrel instead of quad, unless you’re exclusively using the gun to tag trash at radiation rumble.

I’m a 18 y/o fem dating a 20 y/o male. we’ve been dating for a year. I am a nursing major and he is elevator mechanic still in school. I convinced him to move in together but I deeply regret it because we agreed to rent out his parents basement. His dad built a private section for us. It’s small but nice. The only thing is..it’s dark, outdated and stuffy. We agreed to start splitting rent which is $2000, 1000 each.
My family is upset because I have inherited a rent stabilized apartment in a nice neighborhood for only $750+ utilities. If I move there, I would not be required to work. I would only have to focus on school and my scholarship which would pay my expenses. Due to working and having to tend to the house to make it more comfortable and home-y, I am not prioritizing school. I am struggling to be w my boyfriend, take care of myself, and do well in school as well as work. My grades are struggling and I fear I will not get into nursing school
I asked him to support me , he said no. He said he will not move in with me because his name isn’t on the lease and my family could kick him out at any time. He does not want to go from a private home to a busy apartment with no privacy. I just feel overwhelmed. I’ve always wanted my own apartment before a house. I’ve wanted to decorate it girly , have sunlight and lots of plants. I regret moving so fast and giving up my dream. He is a great boyfriend and drives me everywhere I need to go. I appreciate him greatly and have bought him things to fix the car up. I always cook his favorite meals on the weekend to make up for it he believes we should work hard and go to school but he doesn’t understand how hard my science pre reqs are. I feel like I can’t work and study enough hours to get As and get into a program. I might have to pay for nursing school out of pocket. Which I am slowly accepting.
Due to having to split bills he mostly covers groceries and we split chores. I do 70% of cooking and he helps around the house. He also pays his whole car note + insurance.
I regret telling him to move in together because we are not saving. I am not doing well in school either I am stressed.
I have 5k saved, he has 40k saved btw. He wants to buy a house so I get it. I feel like he wants to pay his family house off faster with me there. If I move out he will break up with me and he will probably be forced to go back upstairs due to the rent bring too expensive alone. We’ve been down here a year. I feel like his parents will be confused / upset.
Aita for wanting to move into the cheaper apartment and live alone until I get my degree so I can focus.? I do not want to break up though so I am staying. But am ungrateful and lazy for just wanting to focus on school?

Why nightmares and ‘daymares’ could be early warning signs of autoimmune disease

An increase in nightmares and hallucinations—or ‘daymares’—could herald the onset of autoimmune diseases such as lupus, say an international team led by researchers at the University of Cambridge and King’s College London. The researchers argue that there must be greater recognition that these types of mental health and neurological symptoms can act as an early warning sign that an individual is approaching a “flare,” where their disease worsens for a period.
5-20-2024 Yoga and meditation-induced altered states of consciousness are common in the general population, study says
Yoga, mindfulness, meditation, breathwork, and other practices are gaining in popularity due to their potential to improve health and well-being. The effects of these practices are mostly positive and occasionally transformational, yet they are known to sometimes be associated with challenging altered states of consciousness. New research by a team including investigators from Massachusetts General Hospital reveals that altered states of consciousness associated with meditation practice are far more common than expected. Although many people reported positive outcomes, that were sometimes even considered transformational, from these experiences, for a substantial
5-20-2024 Examining the benefits of out-of-network care for pediatric moyamoya
Total in-episode expenses and resource use before the index surgery (preop) and including/after the surgery (postop). The comparisons are separated for analysis into (A) single institution cohorts (1 and 2) and (B) multi?institution cohorts (3 and 4). Moyamoya disease is a rare condition that affects the blood vessels in the brain, especially in children. Narrowing and blockage of vessels significantly increases the risk of stroke and requires surgical revascularization for treatment. Although research shows that outcomes of revascularization are better
5-20-2024 Study explores links between social media use, mental health and sleep quality
The more time you spend on social media, the greater the likelihood of having unpleasant social-media related dreams that cause distress, sleep disruption and impact our peace of mind. Flinders University’s Reza Shabahang says that the vast and rapid adoption of social media has the potential to influence various aspects of life, including the realm of dreaming. “As social media becomes increasingly intertwined with our lives, its impact extends beyond waking hours, and may influence our dreams,”
5-20-2024 How are asthma and heart health linked?
Although the heart and lungs are neighbors in your chest, people may think of them as separate entities with unrelated problems. But a growing body of evidence suggests that asthma—one of the most common lung disorders—is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Asthma is a serious chronic disease in which airways are inflamed, often in response to specific triggers. It affects about 25 million people in the U.S., including nearly 5 million children, causing millions of annual visits to doctors’ offices and emergency rooms. “We call these major changes
5-20-2024 STUDY EXPLORES PATIENT TRUST IN PHYSICIANS
Trust in one’s physician drives positive health practices. In a scoping review, SUNY Poly Professor of Sociology Dr. Linda R. Weber discovered new developments in the measurement of trust, identified those measures of trust that have known reliability and validity, and compared those instruments’ conceptualizations, dimensions, and indicators. The paper is published in the journal PLOS ONE. Weber explains that 10 dimensions emerged from the study: fidelity, technical competence, communicative competence, interpersonal competence (i.e., caring), honesty, confidentiality, global, behavioral, fairness, and system trust/accountability. In addition, these findings provide the foundation
5-20-2024 TIMESAVING TIPS FOR COOKING HEALTHY MEALS
Living a busy, fast-paced life can make it hard to find the motivation to cook a healthy meal at home. However, learning some shortcuts in the kitchen can keep your healthy eating goals on track and help you avoid grazing on unhealthy snacks, grabbing the first thing you see in the fridge or going out for fast food. Why cook at home? Research shows that maintaining a healthy weight is challenging when you eat out too frequently. Restaurant portions often are super-sized
5-20-2024 UNDERSTANDING PERIMENOPAUSE VS. MENOPAUSE
Menopause marks a significant transition for women, yet understanding its precursor, perimenopause, and its symptoms can be complex. Dr. Stephanie Faubion, director of Mayo Clinic’s Center for Women’s Health and medical director of The Menopause Society, says experiencing perimenopause and menopause can be confusing for some. She says it is not only patients who may find it confusing, but medical providers as well, due to lack of training in menopause management. “Menopause is defined by no menstrual cycle for a year,” says Dr. Faubion.
5-20-2024 LOW-DOSE IRON SUPPLEMENTATION HAS NO BENEFIT FOR BREASTFED INFANTS, SHOWS STUDY
The American Pediatric Association recommends iron supplements to all healthy infants who breastfeed longer than four months, while its European counterpart, Society of Gastroenterology, Hepataology and Nutrition, does not recommend it. These deviating guidelines stimulated researchers to design a new study. Breastfeeding is strongly recommended, and the proportion of children are breastfed during the first half of life is high. The researchers wanted to determine whether breastfeeding babies could benefit from extra iron.
5-20-2024 ALLERGY MEDICATIONS COME WITH HAZARDS: BE AWARE
People with seasonal allergies often turn to over-the-counter and prescription medicines to relieve symptoms like coughing, sneezing, runny nose, congestion and itchy eyes, nose or throat. But they often aren’t aware that these meds—including antihistamines—have as much risk for potential side effects, drug interactions and overdose as other drugs. “All medicines have side effects associated with them even when they are taken appropriately and according to dosing directions on the label,”
5-20-2024 I CAN’T AFFORD OLIVE OIL—WHAT ELSE CAN I USE?
If you buy your olive oil in bulk, you’ve likely been in for a shock in recent weeks. Major supermarkets have been selling olive oil for up to A$65 for a four-liter tin, and up to $26 for a 750 milliliter bottle. We’ve been hearing about the health benefits of olive oil for years. And many of us are adding it to salads, or baking and frying with it. But during a cost-of-living crisis, these high prices can put olive oil out of reach. Let’s take a look at why
5-20-2024 Researchers uncover biological trigger of early puberty
Heather Brenhouse, associate professor of psychology, says disrupting the caretaker relationship can really traumatize a child or a developing rodent. Credit: Ruby Wallau/Northeastern University New research conducted by the Brenhouse Lab reveals how early life adversity triggers early puberty and late-life anxiety, paving the way for potential interventions. The onset of puberty has been creeping downward for decades. In the United States, the average age of girls reaching puberty ranges from 8.8 to 10.3 years old. The early start of puberty, which is associated with many health risks, can be
5-20-2024 Bioluminescence and 3D-printed implants shed light on brain–spinal interactions
Brain-spinal cord duet’s neurodynamic symphony is now accessible to scientists via novel multi-organ implants. Credit: Dmitrijs Celinskis A sensory process such as pain is no ordinary phenomenon—it’s a symphony of neural and vascular interactions orchestrated by the brain and spinal cord. Attempting to dissect this symphony by focusing on a single region is like trying to understand a complex melody by listening to just one instrument. It’s incomplete, potentially misleading, and may result in erroneous conclusions. Enter the Carney Institute’s team of visionaries. Their mission? To develop tools that allow
5-20-2024 New thesis explores cancer treatment that can prevent relapse

5-20-2024 New study reveals health and social benefits of car-free living
Participating in a three-week car-free challenge has enhanced the health and well-being of Oxford residents, according to research conducted by The University of Bath’s Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST), in partnership with climate charity Possible and Low Carbon Oxford North (LCON), conducted this research project. After ditching their cars for three weeks, 10 out of the 12 drivers across Oxford who participated said they plan to continue with reduced car use beyond the project. The findings of this research project show that: Day-to-day transport emissions were slashed
5-20-2024 Research shows linked biological pathways driving skin inflammation
A certain biological pathway—a set of linked reactions in the body—drives the inflammation seen in the skin disease psoriasis, a new study finds. The work could lead to improved therapies for all inflammatory skin diseases, including atopic and allergic dermatitis and a type of boil called hidradenitis suppurativa, say the study authors. The findings are published in the journal Immunity. Inflammation is the body’s natural response to irritation and infection, but when out of control, it can lead to the reddish, flaky, itchy lesions that
5-20-2024 Prescription co-payments linked to more hospital admissions in New Zealand, study finds
A new study from researchers cautions that bringing back the $5 co-payment for prescription medicines could see a jump in hospital admissions. The study analyzed health data for 71,502 people and found those who didn’t pick up a prescription because they couldn’t afford the $5 fee had a 34% higher rate of being admitted to hospital.
5-20-2024 How a simulation is informing COVID-19 vaccine policy after our ‘return to normal’
As the saying goes “There is no such thing as normal” and this has been especially true after the pandemic. Before the emergence of the omicron COVID-19 variant, countries like the U.K. had high vaccination coverage along with widespread exposure to COVID-19 in the population. This combination of vaccine and infection-derived immunity is termed hybrid immunity and is different to vaccine immunity or infection immunity alone. In contrast, other countries, including Australia, New Zealand and those in the Western Pacific, had a very different pandemic experience.
5-20-2024 Researchers find intriguing connections between Alzheimer’s disease and other common conditions
A study has found that while some medical conditions appear to increase our likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s disease, others appear to decrease the odds. The study, led by Dr. Yijun (Nicholas) Pan and Dr. Liang Jin, analyzed data from 2,443 older Australians living in Melbourne or Perth who are part of the Australian Imaging, Biomarker and Lifestyle (AIBL) study, an internationally recognized cohort for dementia research. “We found anxiety and other neurological disorders are associated with increased likelihood of Alzheimer’s disease,” Dr. Pan said.
5-20-2024 Prepping autistic or sound-sensitive kids for cicada noise
As Chicagoans await the emergence of the cicadas, parents of children on the autism spectrum and/or who have sensitivities to sound can take a few steps to prepare for what is expected to be a loud summer. “Some children on the spectrum can struggle with loud or unexpected noises, such as toilets that automatically flush, fireworks around the Fourth of July or the emergence of a large number of cicadas,”
5-20-2024 Study highlights importance of screening for rare inherited iron metabolism defects
Over 40% of cases curated based on stringent clinical and laboratory criteria from the Indian subcontinent have an inherited iron metabolism defect on comprehensive genomic evaluation, report investigators in The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics. Although iron deficiency anemia is the most prevalent form of anemia globally,
5-20-2024 Study finds tyrosine kinase Csk promotes germinal center B cell survival and affinity maturation
The authors found that Csk (a tyrosine kinase that attenuates B cell receptor signaling) is required for germinal center maintenance and efficient antibody maturation. The immune system strikes a fine balance by identifying and neutralizing disease-causing agents while carefully avoiding destruction of healthy tissues and cells. Now, researchers from Japan have shed new light on one of the processes that helps train immune cells to act only against genuine threats.
5-20-2024 Significant gaps between science of obesity and the care patients receive, say experts
As research continues to produce evidence about the underlying causes of obesity and optimal strategies to treat and manage obesity have evolved, there are disparities in application of the latest scientific advances in the clinical care that people with obesity receive. Widespread adoption of current findings, consistency of care and expertise in obesity care varies by health care professional and institution.
5-20-2024 Improving online depression treatment
Symptom course of depression for individuals who dropped out of treatment and those who completed treatment. In the dropout group, there is an initial decrease in symptoms while the patients were still in treatment, which tapers off as they drop out. For completers, there is close to a linear change over time. This suggests there is a relation between the more that an individual continues to participate in ICBT and their depressive symptom improvement.

5-20-2024 Anticancer potential of CLK kinase inhibitors 1C8 and GPS167 via EMT and antiviral immune response
The diheteroarylamide-based compound 1C8 and the aminothiazole carboxamide-related compound GPS167 inhibit the CLK kinases, and affect the proliferation of a broad range of cancer cell lines. A chemogenomic screen previously performed with GPS167 revealed that the depletion of components associated with mitotic spindle assembly altered
5-20-2024 Study sheds light on bacteria associated with pre-term birth
Researchers from North Carolina State University have found that multiple species of Gardnerella, bacteria sometimes associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV) and pre-term birth, can coexist in the same vaginal microbiome. The findings, published in mSystems, add to the emerging picture of Gardnerella’s effects on human health. Gardnerella is a group of anaerobic bacteria that are commonly found in the vaginal microbiome. Higher levels of the bacteria are a signature of BV and associated with higher risk of pre-term birth, but it is also found in women who have no sign

Hello, I’m mostly trying to reach students who currently attend the mathematical and computing sciences for AI course at Bocconi to ask basically what stated in the title. Since it’s a quite original course I was wondering what different possibilities graduates have: immediate job opportunities, continue studying for what masters degree and where?
Ps. Additional context if your interested:
Admitted to first choice BAI, and although I’ve always really liked the course and some while ago I was like 100% sure about it now I’m not… my passion has always been physics, so in the past few months I’ve been more convinced about doing a just pure physics course + I’ve also always been keen into philosophy, and have applied and been accepted (conditional offer based on end year grades though so no 100% sure yet) to Physics and philosophy joint honors Bachelor at King’s college. No idea what to do with my life rn honestly

Hi all! We (3 adults) are planning a half day at HS - 1PM until 8PM. We have been to the Star Wars rides in California many times. I tried to input this plan in TouringPlans, but am getting some errors. I am staying on-site at GF so I think I can start making my LL/LL+ reservations at 7AM. We are going end of October and our half day HS will be on a Saturday and we are flying in that Saturday AM arriving at 10:30AM.
Rides we are aiming for are ROTR (ILL), Slinky, Smuggles, TS Mania, MMRR, and maybe Rock n Rollercoaster if time allows. We are prioritizing waiting in line the least.
7AM - Book LL for Slinky and hope for an afternoon time or keep modifying and ILL for ROTR.
Arrive at MCO at 10:30AM, uber to GF and check in/drop off bags, book 2nd ILL for MMRR
12:30 to 1PM arrive at HS, get Ronto Roasters for lunch, book 3rd LL for TS Mania
1-4PM Ride ILL/LL booked rides, explore the park, book LL for Rock n Rollercoaster (not a must) and single rider Smuggler's
4PM Oga's Cantina for a break and some drinks and snacks
5-7:30 Shop, explore, ride more rides if wait isn't too long or its a late LL return.
7:30 Head out of park for dinner at Flying Fish or Jaleo (do you prefer one or the other?)
Is watching Fantasmic worth it? Is it worth the dining package for VIP seating?
Thank you very much for your help. Feel free to poke holes in this plan as you like. Suggestions very much appreciated.

This is really nothing more than babysitting. I can't do anything for a grade because only about a third of the students are actually here. And of course the kids that need to catch up with work aren't here to do it. I'm all for a free day here and there, but as school years get longer and longer, do the politicians making those rules know how none of this matters if kids don't show up?
