There may be a way to prevent runaway thermal lithium battery fires. Still, it's not going to help one at home when one of these fires starts. Are you prepared to deal with a lithium ion or lithium polymer battery fire? Ordinary extinguishers may not work – lithium ion fires need a Class B extinguisher. Some say just let these fires burn out since they tend to be short-lived, but the fumes can be toxic.

Oregon doesn't have enough doctors and nurses. But in Oregon, these professionals can't cross state lines to work.
The source of his frustration: lawmakers’ refusal to join what are known as “interstate licensing compacts.” ...at least 40 states are members of these physicians and nurses compacts. But not Oregon.
Why not? An Oregon Medical Board spokesperson did not directly answer the question. But leadership has been largely critical. “We have been actively engaged in discussions about the compact, and remain concerned for patient safety,” said the board’s executive director, Nicole Krishnaswami. “When a person is licensed through the compact, we are not able to review their criminal history.”
So we get all kinds of unvetted illegals in our state. But doctors and nurses are under greater scrutiny because they might be criminals. Forty-plus states have solved the problem, and I don't see any issues. But not Oregon.

Dismantling Google is a terrible idea. If you are a shareholder, I guess. Google has becoming a company to be feared. They have so much data on everyone.

Elevated plasma markers related to neuronal damage and accumulation of phosphorylated tau suggest the presence of ongoing neuropathology in the chronic phase following a single moderate–severe TBI. Plasma biomarkers were associated with measures of microstructural brain disruption on MRI and disordered cognition, further highlighting their utility as potential objective tools to monitor evolving neuropathology post-TBI.
