They are starting to do more imaging studies regarding personality disorders. www.nature.com/articles/s41... The p value in that space is a little too generous for my taste, but at least they are starting to look.

Maturing is letting the huge Orb Weaver Spider stay on your porch because you value the symbiotic relationship you have with her. Pest control at different scales, keeps the bugs in check, and scares away a subset of the population who should not be on my porch. Happy Spider Tax Below:

1933 58 foot former company yacht built by Foss Tug, had a stint of wartime use. Inland passage use only. Not mine. The sail boat was small, like 20 feet or so and scrappy. Also not mine.

This ancient Greek figure from the 2,500 year-old Douris Cup looks uncannily like someone working on a laptop! 😲 💻 He’s actually writing with a stylus on a hinged wax writing tablet! The technology has changed, the posture has not! 😂 Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me

I need to get back out on the water and run a jib for ancestral reasons. Getting blasted in the face with the wind while manuvering a vessel under our own power is one of the best flow states around.

I'm looking for a figure that shows the order that English words are usually in. I know there was a post on here or the other site years ago, I think for ESL learners...anyone have that? I'm teaching a writing class and that would help a couple of students. TIA!

He was calm and assertive and it worked. He respectfully ushered me inside and back to my dorm that night. It just takes 1 guy to do the right thing.

🧵 During my 1st year away at university, I ended up in a precarious situation at a house party. A group of guys backed me into the deck railing and just as things were about to get worse, 1 guy came out on the deck and said "Hey! We don't do that here. Back off." (cont in next thread)

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport

Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

Spending time in the presence of one of Ireland's extremely rare ancient trees, like this hulking oak near Bandon with local man Dan Holland, are for me life highlights. But it's always bittersweet, tempered by the knowledge that such stupendous beings were once commonplace. We have lost SO much.

Due to my state's ageing ferry fleet and the lack of federal funding we were stuck on our little island adventure for much longer than anticipated. The Moon had something to say about it. :)

Returning to the Selkie habitat was the right choice. Admiring Venus while the Sun says good night and the Moon has your back, while being nessled betwixt two toothy mountian ranges and the sea air who breathes for you is a welcome luxury.

Smile, it’s Friday! 😃 Meet ‘The Oldest Smile in the World’ a tiny face that’s been smiling for some 7,400 years! Carved from oak during the Mesolithic, this small human figure was found in 1966 in a layer of peat during dock construction at Willemstad in the Netherlands. #FindsFriday #Archaeology

My photo shows a human figure roughly carved from dark brown oak wood during the Mesolithic period about 5,400-5,300 BC. It is 12.5 cm tall with a long body with two finger-shaped indents on the right hand side (left in my photo), suggesting it was made to be held in the hand. The stylized head has deeply carved eyes, nose, and open mouth. The triangular shape of the mouth makes it look as if the figure is smiling, leading to its description as ‘The oldest smile in the world’. It is displayed against a black display case background at Landesmuseum Halle in Germany where the figure is currently on loan for the ‘Shamaness’ exhibition. It is part of the permanent collections of Rijksmuseum van Oudheden, Leiden, Netherlands. It was found in a layer of peat in 1966 during the construction of a dock at Willemstad, North Brabant, Netherlands.
