The results have not been peer reviewed by outside experts, the usual procedure for vetting new medical research. Why not? An independent group of medical experts monitoring the trial recommended stopping it early because the interim results were so strong. Since when? That is typical when early re...

Finished it. http://www.umich.edu/~chuck/Nike/parts.JPG Missile and launcher completed but not mated. http://www.umich.edu/~chuck/Nike/Horiz_complete.JPG http://www.umich.edu/~chuck/Nike/vertical_complete.JPG I figured out how to fix the putty blobs. I had started using the micro chisels to carve/sm...

This is the second heavy duty olive drab kit I am working on. It is an Atlantis re-pop of a Nike Hercules originally issued by Revel in the late 50’s, box scale (1/40). Renwal had issued a Nike Ajax kit back in 1955 at 1/32 scale. The Ajax is the immediate predecessor to the Hercules and was a much ...

And what were the figures like BEFORE the pandemic?

I just realized I have a second, much older version of the kit, somewhere (Monogram label). I found the original insert on diorama construction but I haven't located the kit itself. It's probably in a storage box in the basement! I could build that one as in flight and close up the bomb bay (and the...

I haven't built a model in decades. It's easy. It's like falling off a bicycle, you never forget!!!! :lol: Yes, I did send it in and it made the builders group build. I love Max's channel. That and Mike Machat's "Celebrating Aviation" are the two YouTube Channels I subscribe to and watch ...

13 percent of them — some 10,100 teachers — still lacked even a single shot, which they’re required to get by Monday. That means that 87% are vaccinated? Not as good a headline? That's still way more than the population in general which is at about 60-65%. I have no idea why people are behaving so ...

Been under development for 15 years, just got FDA approval (necessary as it is a GMO food). They got the plant to produce lower levels of the enzyme that normally converts lycopene (stuff that makes tomatoes red) to beta carotene (stuff that makes non GMO pineapples yellow). Lycopene is "sweete...

don’t buy into the hype either What "hype"? 550,000 dead in the first year, another 100,000 dead in the past 7 months. The really sad part is the last 100,000 didn't have to die. Plus, people are dying in some areas because they can't get emergency treatment for accidents, heart attacks, ...
