Get the Galaxy S9 for £619 here. The Samsung Galaxy S9 is the best phone on the market – flawed only by its price. The disheartening £739 RRP stopped us from crowning the S9 first place in our curated round up of the best smartphones of 2018 (the more affordable OnePlus 6 snatched that spot instead). But that doesn’t mean we aren’t fans of the Galaxy S9. The Galaxy S9 earned an impressive 4....

Recent polls in Britain and Germany showed that more kids could identify Michael Jordan than local heroes like England’s cricket captain Mike Atherton or tennis star Boris Becker. Among Chinese youth, he’s more popular than anyone else in the world....

The list was compiled on the number of new residential and commercial rodent treatments the company performed between Sept. 1, 2019 and Aug. 31, 2020. In the previous year’s report, Chelle Hartzer, an Orkin entomologist, warned residential properties “offer the ideal habitat for rodents because of access to food and water sources, potential entry points and hiding places.” She added: “A rat can squeeze through an opening as small as a quarter, while a mouse can wedge its way into a hole smaller than a dime....

This is because our ruling class—in the name of “defending democracy”—classifies those who question the regime on any matter of consequence as a threat to the homeland, and pledges to pursue them accordingly. Our ruling elites have engaged in an overt war on wrongthink masquerading as a domestic counter-terror mission since at least January 6, 2021. As part of this effort, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recently issued a speech-chilling National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin....

Hunker down, America. The spectacular successes of the first few days–of war-as-video game and of an enemy too confused or too incompetent to fight back effectively–were over. Slowed by a combination of bad weather and artful defensive tactics by the Iraqi high command, the jaunty dominance of the allied air offensive seemed to be bogging down in a blur of conflicting perceptions. The military numbers game–sorties flown, targets hit–competed in the public mind with dramatic images like those of frightened, obviously brutalized POWs who parroted clumsy propaganda lines at the command of unseen interrogators....

Antifibrinolytic agents work as blood clotting agents (hemostatics) that slow the breakdown of blood clots. These hemostatics can reduce bleeding in different ways, such as sticking to the tissues where bleeding has occurred and delivering support to the hemorrhage sites. Amicar helps improve hemostasis (a process to prevent and stop bleeding, therefore keeping blood within a damaged blood vessel) when fibrinolysis contributes to bleeding. It can play a life-saving role in life-threatening situations, especially where emergency treatments are required....
