Physiological fidelity of a satellite-derived forest resilience indicator in the Amazon

Electrical Safety Tips for the Holidays
It is that time of year again when the extension cords, decorative lighting strings, and multioutlet strips for the upcoming holidays will be pulled back out of those totes tucked away in our basements, which we stored them in from the last holiday season.

Misleading messages after filing
I just e-filed my taxes a couple hours ago, after successfully avoiding a TurboTax ploy to check my credit as if it's a seamless part of the filing process. Pretty sneaky, but I was able to back-screen and get around it. Now I just received an email from TurboTax with the subject line "Your 2019 Refund is Waiting (Please Sign With Your User ID)."

When was it that UL-approved panel shops became better (or the only) designers and fabricators of industrial control panels?
Question This is becoming a big problem with some local inspectors taking the position that all control panels must be fabricated in UL-approved panel shops. Many electrical contractors are able to fabricate a safe control panel from design documents stamped by a licensed electrical engineer. Is this not an option now? When was it that UL-approved panel shops became better (or the only) designers and fabricators of industrial control panels? — R. K.
