I look 5-7 years younger than my brother who is only a year older than me. I don't do a lot other than washing my face and wearing moisturizer/sunscreen. Some men treat their leather boots better than their own skin, weird to me but I guess it's macho to not take care of yourself.

It's my understanding that only a small section burned fully but was later rebuilt. The real cause of the fall was a couple hundred years of misuse and then conquest of course. By the end though there were many other libraries so at least some of the texts were saved.

As a child my family would store potatoes in our cellar all winter into the next year where we would plant them again. Staying between 45-50°F, with high humidity, good ventilation, and no light will make them last 6 months or more.

It's possible but the cheapest rice cooker is going to be more consistent than a seasoned pro. I can cook rice fairly well without a cooker but 1 out of 10 times it's awful.

He was acting like he was shooting a gun into the air directly in front of the ref. Stupid move for sure.

"oh you just want me to clean my knife on your bread from where I used it last?" I'm with you, complete bullshit.

Make it mandatory to get extra pay for this extra contact and it would be greatly reduced. I agree that we live in a 24/7 society however that shouldn't be an excuse to make people work off schedule. If you need someone at night then pay that person.

Make it automatic then, why report a crime when you can limit the speed. Cut out the middle man, also defund the police.
