Cantrell says that Tyler was a student at Carver Career Center. He just graduated with a welding degree and was one of eight students in Kanawha County to receive the Governor’s Work Force Credential, which requires meeting rigorous standards.

I try to memorize the nesting order, working outwards: uranium, zirconium, iron, copper, bentonite, gneiss, granite….

Pasi shows me around the permanent exhibition that explains how the nuclear power supply chain works from mine to consumer, and proves how radiation is a hazard only if incorrectly handled.

Providence: Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo signed a bill Wednesday to preserve federal abortion protections in state law. The Senate passed the bill and immediately transmitted it to the House, which resumed its session to pass it. Raimondo signed it in her office, calling it an “important, consequential bill.” “Fundamentally this bill is about health care,” she said. Rhode Island is one of the Democratic-led states taking steps to enshrine the right to an abortion should the U.S. Supreme Court ever overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. Raimondo said she wanted to sign quickly, in light of the uncertainty across the nation. The new law says the state will not restrict the right to an abortion prior to fetal viability or afterward if an abortion is necessary for the health or life of the mother.

Napier went as far as to say his division will have to relearn how to do their jobs without the front tags.

Frankfort: A state agency says it has secured another $5 million federal grant to continue a program providing youth-support services. Kentucky’s Department for Behavioral Health, Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities says the latest grant will continue the program through March 2024. The Transition Age Youth Launching Realized Dreams program allows youth ages 16 to 25 to easily access quality, developmentally appropriate, youth-driven support services. Officials say the goal is to help participants achieve their goals and transition into adulthood successfully. Officials say available services include expedited assistance in locating housing, mental health services and substance-abuse treatment. Since 2014, the program has helped more than 1,900 youth. Officials say youth and young adults can visit one of Kentucky’s 20 drop-in sites to access behavioral health services.

Substantial dimensions contribute to the Nitro+’s imposing presence. For reference, AMD’s Radeon RX Vega 56 is 10.5 inches long, 4.375 inches tall, and a little more than 1.5 inches thick with its backplate in place. It only takes up two expansion slots. Meanwhile, the Nitro+ RX Vega 56 8G is more than 12.25 inches long, 5.125 inches tall, and 2.125 inches wide, taking into account fan blades that stick out beyond the shroud. You’ll naturally need to reserve three expansion slots for a proper fit.

Another effective strategy for influencing a network is to attract people in the network to the idea instead of using urgency to push an agenda. Here’s where we can learn a lot from nature.

I happened to be walking in my kitchen when my Cuisinart tea kettle (Fig. 1) started to make a hissing noise. Smoke began pouring from the base. I rushed over, unplugged it, noticed it was boiling hot, and filled it with cold water. In retrospect, I wish I had just let it burn, to see if its safety features would prevent a house fire. Go easy on me, when an electrical engineer sees smoke, they just have to do something.

Sprint Instinct Holy CRAP. This is not the painfully lousy browser the Instinct shipped with not by a long shot. The original was slow and fairly feeble, even if it was the head of its (dumbphone) class. The new 1.1 browser really is a life-changing upgrade. It suffers in the chart because it’s much slower than most other browsers, and zooming is still clumsy, but once the page loads, it’s much smoother to pan and actually move around. I got a bit annoyed that it lied about pageload time, hanging at the last 2 percent of the status bar for half the load, but it usually gets things right. This is the best non-smartphone browser you can get. Grade: C+

Bentley’s Continental GT remains a chubby piece, but every 2020 model’s husky-size clothing is now entirely aluminum versus the old version’s predominantly steel skin. That saves about 170 pounds regardless of engine choice. Bentley also extended the two-door’s wheelbase 4.1 inches while holding the overall length the same, a move that allowed it to relocate the engine lower and farther back in the chassis. As before, the eight-cylinder models remain the lightest; skipping the big, complex W-12 engine and other standard equipment that comes with it saves 175 pounds, according to Bentley.
