I’m 66 and I eat breakfast at the same diner every Saturday and the waitress knows my order before I sit down — and last week she was off sick and the replacement asked what I wanted, and I realized the meal isn’t why I come here, the meal is just the cover charge for being expected somewhere by someone who notices when I don’t show up

I’m 66 and my adult son called me last Sunday just to ask how I was — no favor, no crisis, no reason — and I didn’t know how to have that conversation because I couldn’t remember the last time anyone asked just to check, and I was so unprepared I turned the conversation back to him within two minutes because being asked about myself had apparently become something I don’t know how to receive anymore

95% success rate: This new trick lures termites straight to their death

Add to bookmarks Don't show ScienceDaily

Scientists at UC Riverside have found a clever new way to outsmart termites—by turning their own instincts against them. Using a natural pine scent called pinene, which smells like food to termites, researchers can lure the pests straight toward a targeted dose of insecticide hidden in wood. The result is dramatically higher kill rates—jumping from about 70% to over 95%—without the need for widespread toxic fumigation. Read more ›
