Easy Electronics<\/strong>
\nCharles Platt\u2019s\u00a0growing series of electronics learning books<\/a>\u00a0are the best I\u2019ve come across. He explains concepts very clearly, and his illustrations are excellent. His latest book in the series is called\u00a0Easy Electronics<\/a>. It covers voltage, resistance, capacitors, transistors, integrated circuits and more. No tools are needed to make the projects. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Genetically modified dried apple<\/strong>
\nI welcome genetically modified foods (GMOs). A GMO that I currently enjoy is\u00a0Arctic ApBitz dried apple crisps<\/a>. Regular dried apples are soft and pliable. Arctic crisps have been bred to dry naturally without browning and to retain their crispness and crunchiness. They are french-fry shaped and textured. The dry snack is extremely lightweight (great for hiking), satisfactory crunchy and flavor intense, and comes in 3 apple varieties: Delicious, Granny Smith, and Golden (the variety in the link). I really enjoy them, and I am told that kids prefer these crunchy apple sticks over traditional apple leathers. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Forward email to unsubscribe<\/strong>
\nMy personal gmail is mess of promotional emails and spam. I\u2019ve tried to clean it up in the past using unsubscribe services and marking messages as spam, but it\u2019s a never ending struggle. Recently, I\u2019ve started forwarding spam emails to unsubscribe.robot@gmail.com and that seems to work. There\u2019s no guarantee, but it\u2019s free, easy and they don\u2019t sell your data. I just checked my usage on\u00a0the website<\/a>\u00a0and it reports that so far I\u2019ve been definitely unsubscribed from 6 emails and probably unsubscribed from 7. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Ready Player One audio<\/strong>
\nI liked the movie, I liked the book, but the best format for Ready Player One is to listen to this fun science fiction story as narrated by the actor Wil Wheaton. He tells it fast, with gusto, humor, emotion, and tons of nerdy details. I listened to it once and then re-listened as my wife audited it as well and realized it\u2019s one of the best audible books ever. It\u2019s 15 hours of joy.\u00a0Available on Audible<\/a>. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Look and sound more confident<\/strong>
\nHere\u2019s\u00a0a chart to remind you of the small things you can do to appear more confident<\/a>. Speaking slowly is one that I\u2019m always working on. When I\u2019m on the phone, I tap the desk for each word I say to avoid uhms or uhhs. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Traveling with tubes<\/strong>
\nMost tubes of toothpaste, hair gel, and lotion have sharp corners on the crimped end. The sharp corners easily slice through the plastic bag I keep my gels and liquids in when flying. I started snipping the corners with nail clippers. I even fillet the corners of tubes at home, to prevent them from jabbing my fingers when I reach for them in a drawer. Just be careful not to cut the corners so much that it causes a leak. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n
