More specifically, employers are entitled — and required — to ensure a safe workplace in which "an individual shall not pose a direct threat to the health or safety of individuals in the workplace." That can mean a company requiring its workforce to be vaccinated... Since CDC is saying it...

What wasn't mentioned in the article is that N95 masks are for "nuisance" particles 0.3 microns and larger such as sawdust (comparatively read as "wood-chips") and offer basically zero protection against viruses such as COVID-19 which is a teeny-tiny 0.06 microns or one fifth of...

^^^^^^^

Yes. A fitted N95 is an entirely different deal than a bandana below your nose. When people say "masks don't work"......it depends.

I'd sure hope so!

Don't keep us in suspense.

Even the CDC website says only 6% of "Covid deaths" were people that were healthy and not going to die from anything any time soon and got the 'Rona and died. There is PLENTY wrong with the government response to Covid, but I don't think I'd take that widely touted number at face value. I...

I will get it because I work in a field designated "Very High Risk". The chances I'd die from it aren't great, but I'd rather not be sick for several weeks or spend my retirement carrying around oxygen bottles, either. The vaccine card doesn't look much different than the ones we had as ki...

I've been getting into airguns a bit more for indoor practice and am really enjoying it. Right now, I've got an Air Arms 510 set up with a scope, but have always wanted to try a biathlon style rifle. Those are set up with diopter sights, not scopes. Is it even possible to shoot those sights properly...

I have several Milt Sparks Versa-Max 2 IWB holsters. The way they are designed makes them very secure. I've never had a snap pop open

Is it still holding? It looks like the Star Tribune has dropped the majority to one IF the projections hold. The uncalled races are almost all R incumbents.

I sometimes wonder if those high bids come from the person it was taken from. They either wanted it back for sentimental reasons or needed it back to return to the owner that let them borrow it.

You can sell the rings separately, but the front base will be useless without the matching(missing) rear

Two hours isn't particularly long for nasty brass. I'd cut back on the amount of brass, increase the time to 4 hours and rinse. It will be beautiful.
