Trump’s blood-soaked four-year reign of error

Brilliant summation

I don't think you'll find it. Mayonnaise has a mechanism of lipid oxidation catalysed by iron ions present in egg yolks. Most mass produced mayonnaise contains EDTA to chelate metal ions and slow down lipid peroxidation. Lipid oxidation is also known as rancidity.

You can test this yourself by leaving a metal utensil in some mayo for a couple hours. It should turn black from a redox reaction

Having two sets of wrenches and sockets is absolute worst. Especially when it seems like 10mm does 80% of the work but is missing 100% of the time

I suppose it depends on whether you are talking about African or European woodchucks.

How about another tongue twister?

This is what I got

Not op but I grow pollinator gardens in my community garden which typically attracts bees, hummingbirds etc.; check with your local nursery because there should be a native plant seed mix you can buy.

You may be a little late in the season (assuming northern hemisphere) for most seed mixes because I've mostly seen suggested sowing in fall or late spring

Assuming you mean viral load referring to mucuses or blood of the infected. Given that the human influenza virus' entry requires the viral surface proteins (hemagglutinin (HA)) to bind to acids present on respiratory epithelial cells along with cleavage of HA by host cell proteases (enzymes that breakdown proteins) to facilitate membrane fusion. These trypsin-like proteases are mainly expressed in airway tissues, restricting influenza viral tissue response to the respiratory tract. I would say it would be highly unlikely for influenza viral replication existing in an environment lacking this crucial interaction let alone a low-pH environment like the GI tract

The shepherd at night is probably a red herring. Shepherds stay out at night during lambing season which is February-April in Europe and North America but November-March in Israel

Depends how you look at the numbers. While there's definitely some positive increase in the in red states with a modest sub-1% growth rate, they saw a 2% growth rate previously. So on its face it looks like a positive increase but it's still a negative trend with a -50% reduction of the base line

Conversely, blue states were seeing a -0.5% growth rate but have tightened that to -0.05% so that's a 10x increase over baseline while still seeing a population decline

My favourite conundrum is the unlawful imprisonment of the unborn if the mother is in prison or jail.

This just seems to be detecting if the browser is Firefox. The function is even named isGecko which is Mozilla's browser engine used by Firefox. Edge, IE (Trident) don't return true from isGecko

Unless I'm missing something I don't see where the delay is added
