...investigate those factors more closely, Layton and Beamer developed a computer algorithm that looked at the size, source and toxicity of dust particles as well as how easily they enter the house, if they ever exit and, if so, by what route. That information, by extension, can provide at least a rough sense of the dust load in your own home. (See TIME's special report "How to Live 100 Years...
...those reasons, the White House would much rather see Congress take the lead - and the political heat - on climate change. But the EPA's Jackson, at least, seems ready to fight.

Few people will risk their lives to vote and a low turnout, particularly one due to insecurity, would reflect badly on Bashir.
