May 05, 2021

They have seen firsthand why tenderness is so important in this world."

Wait. I should clarify.
Here in the city, lovers of the drink, me included, are free to purchase any type of liquor from the neighborhood sari-sari store, the convenience store or the grocery. In fact, there's no limit as to how much you can buy as long as you take it home with you and consume it there.

Wenceslao: Change is coming
May 05, 2021
That President Rodrigo Duterte only has harsh words against former Supreme Court chief justice Antonio Carpio and top diplomats of the administration of former President Noynoy Aquino on the issue of Chinese ships' incursions into the West Philippine Sea only shows that the current dispensation recognizes this as a major issue in the coming elections. And with the United States having learned its lessons from the last elections that saw a pro-China President take over Malacañang, the Duterte administration is now feeling the pressure of public opinion taking an anti-China slant.

LT Group: 2021 will be tougher, but better than 2020
May 05, 2021
THE slow opening up of the economy in 2021 should bode well for all businesses in general, listed firm LT Group Inc. president and chief operating officer Michael Tan said.
LTG expects the demand for consumer goods, those of Tanduay Distillers Inc. and Asia Brewery Inc. to show some volume growth or at least remain steady. But the volume of PMFTC Inc.'s products might still be impacted, as price increases are needed to pass on the annual increase in excise taxes, the last of which was in October 2020.

He passed him once, twice and noticing that he was alone, curiosity got the better of him.

How Internal Combustion Engines Work
May 05, 2021
Although it was first developed in the 19th century, the internal combustion engine is perhaps the defining technology of the 20th century. If you don't quite know how they work, this fantastic interactive demonstration from Bartosz Ciechanowskiis a great place to start. I lived in the country when I was a kid and helped my dad, who was a crackerjack mechanic, out in the garage a lot, so I know how engines work, but even so this is really illuminating, especially when it comes to the details. Turns out that an engine is basically just tiny cannons attached ...

Scientists in the U.S. demonstrated a sodium-ion battery with no anode, that retained 99.93% of its initial capacity per cycle. Their design was able to overcome many of the stability issues associated with using 'pure' alkali metals in batteries, thanks to carefully minimizing water content in the liquid electrolyte.
Anode-free batteries, or those incorporating alkali-metal anode materials, present one of the many possible pathways to improvement in battery technology. This type of battery though tends to show serious issues with stability, and the formation of dendrites quickly leads to short-circuiting or heavy performance loss.
