In the cold light of morning, surveying my trolleyload of folly, several things strike me. I don’t own a tin-opener. We don’t have the space to store everything (or more accurately, anything). And I forgot the cat food. The cat eyes me, hungrily. 

Due to imminent health hazards observed during this inspection, the establishment was been a Cease Operations Order and must discontinue food operations immediately. The establishment could not operate for a minimum of 48 hours. Inspected Jan. 14.

GM's GMC Sierra luxury truck sells in smaller numbers — No. 17 in overall U.S. vehicle sales last year — but it's brand new, too.

Made with durable stainless steel, the FIXBODY nail clipper set comes with two nail clippers made for toes and fingers, one nail file, and a leather case to help keep yourself organized. The ultra-sharp blades cut through thick nails with ease, and the anti-slip lever ensures that your fingers are safe with every clip.

“We have had great success using Twitter, Facebook and the KSP Mobile App to share winter weather updates,” notes Lawson. “We encourage drivers to check road and weather conditions before traveling by visiting https://transportation.ky.gov/sites/GoKY/home, an online traffic, roadway information and weather portal operated by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.”

The first stage in solar drying, in terms of design sophistication, is the “hot box” dryer in which the food is enclosed and protected in a box or tent with a clear covering. This design might resemble a cold frame or a miniature greenhouse.

I’ve depended on a vacuum sealer in my kitchen for so many years that I cannot imagine getting along without it. Now and then I get lazy, and then I get an immediate jolt that reminds me why I do this.

The platform includes two components: a disposable soft, microfluidic network and a reusable, thin NFC electronic module. An exploded view illustration of the overall construction of each of these subsystems is in Fig. 1A. Figure S1 illustrates a cross-sectional schematic illustration of the different layers of the device. A low-modulus (~1 MPa) silicone elastomer, patterned using soft lithographic techniques, defines a set of isolated chambers for colorimetric and electrochemical sensing, a ratcheted channel for quantifying sweat rate and total sweat loss and a collection of interconnecting microchannels with passive, capillary bursting valves (CBVs) for routing sweat through the device. A patterned layer of a skin-compatible adhesive enables robust attachment to the skin, and it defines openings as interfaces between the skin and inlet ports in the bottom side of the microfluidic structure. The soft, flexible construction, as illustrated in Fig. 1B, allows comfortable, water-tight, irritation-free mounting onto curved regions of the body. Figure 1C shows the electronic module, where the NFC interface (~0.1 g) supports both wireless power delivery and data transmission to any NFC-enabled consumer device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or watch. The battery-free design exploits a detachable, bilayer flexible circuit board (diameter, 18 mm; thickness, ~0.5 mm) with a minimal component count for real-time data acquisition from biofuel cell–based lactate and glucose sensors located in the microfluidic structure (diameter, 32 mm; thickness, ~1 mm). Estimates suggest that this platform (~1 g) is nearly 20 times lighter in weight and 4 times smaller in lateral dimension than approaches that rely on battery-powered Bluetooth radios (20, 36, 37). A previous example of a biofuel cell–based lactate sensor illustrates the underlying sensing principle (34). Unlike the system introduced here, this previous work requires a battery-powered Bluetooth low energy module for wireless transmission, with associated significant increases in size and weight. Advantages of the present system include increased comfort and discreet wearability. In addition, the engineered microfluidic structure allows for sweat sample handling with zero cross-talk between the different sensors. The biofuel cell design involves a voltage amplifier with defined sensor element load implemented with a small footprint operational amplifier and miniature passive components. The circuit conditions the signal for digitalization within the integrated NFC chip (TI RF430FRL152H). The analog electronics are robust, with minimal susceptibility to external noise caused by the NFC electronics and fluctuations in the supply voltage.

Bare root plants should be planted in their permanent location as soon as possible after purchase, but rainy weather or busy schedules can interfere with the best of intentions. If immediate planting isn’t possible, you’ll need to keep the roots of your chosen plants from drying out or freezing. Loosely wrap the rootballs with wet burlap or newspaper, or place them in a pot full of fine, moist, sawdust or compost. Keep the plants outdoors in a cool location; avoid warm, bright places because they might think it’s spring and come out of dormancy.
