  1. This article is interesting for the very different tactic of protecting mosquitos from malaria in order to protect people.
  2. Depends if aesthetic is the goal. One may also need to do it at the right time, in the right places, otherwise possibly no/reduced produce next season
  3. Pruning for productivity isn't an art. Each species has a different process and also for what your goals are. Try reading RHS articles like this. Bear in mind the season in the UK may be different , so adjust that for your area. https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?pid=90 I have this book which is good: https://www.amazon.co.uk/RHS-Pruning-Training-Revised-Plants/dp/024128290X
  4. Of course not! It's the bloody passengers that have got the virus. ()
  5. As the density eases with inflation, irregularities in the density distribution become more likely and thus increasing inhomogeneity results because the slight differences in gravity will cause material to clump irregularly towards the areas with higher mass-energy. E2A
  6. I wasn't implying other papers had evidence, I was merely referencing the sources. It doesn't matter, as the electorate will be the jury.
  7. From what I've been reading, the main, relatively unbiased, US papers have not found compelling evidence and basically it's down to the electorate in November to decide for themselves.
  8. No. I I was referring to what would stop Trump from paying people to lie. My fault.
  9. Probably nothing.
  10. Well, this November we'll see how many gullible Americans there really are, even though they've seen and heard him these last 4 years. Does their animosity towards Democrats outweigh Trump's incompetence and deceit... is that the real motivation?
  11. They are doing their best to bury bad news... which is everything Trump says and does.
  12. Each row/column follows a numerical sequence, so it must be a 5, then you'll notice two whites and a black in each row and column. Whites are in the l/r quadrants and blacks in the t/d quadrants, so it has to be
  13. General Relativity describes cosmological scales to high precision but as you get to denser states and smaller sizes it loses accuracy and by the time you get to the most dense state it falls apart. This is where Quantum physics comes in but, as yet, there is no quantum model of gravity, so, scientists are stuck with two models for different aspects of the universe; the very large and the very small. Nether of these models are applicable in both aspects, just the one.
  14. The WH is looking how it can retaliate, I read yesterday in Reuters.
  15. Freewill at the initial state of the universe? That implies a conscious mind.
  16. They can move subjectively fast with lights on in the dark.
  17. A 4-rotor job can do anything, just about that might allude to ufo.
  18. Yes, that's the same function as ambergris in expensive perfumes.
  19. I think you are misinterpreting this and I have read this. I just think he had his great years then ran out of intuition; fruitlessly seeking hope and clues for inspiration in the maths in his later years. Maths is a tool, not the source of answers but its importance cannot be understated and it is absolutely essential when ones intuition comes up trumps. Scientific ideas are spineless without it.
  20. Yes, that's too close. Aside from bringing it up with the board, which should be explored, have you put draught strip around the external door and a brush strip on the bottom?
  21. Why do many people always automatically correlate 'unidentified flying object' with 'aliens'?
