Also popular, especially for organic stains, are enzymatic cleaners. These use sets of enzymes to break down the molecules of the staining substance. Lipases, for example, break down lipids like olive oil. Many of these are more environmentally friendly than their harsher brethren. But these cleaners can vary widely in concentration and the type of enzymes used. In some, the labels won’t disclose which enzymes are in the mix; instead, they list an “enzymatic blend” as an ingredient. Unlike surfactants, you might have a harder time finding these stain removers in a pinch, such as when you’re traveling or away from home. To purchase this type of cleaner, check the label of a commercial stain remover for terms such as “enzymatic action,” and look closely at which types of stains it promises to treat.

Abstract: A method is for making a semiconductor device. The method may include forming fins above a substrate, each fin having an upper fin portion including a first semiconductor material and a lower fin portion including a dielectric material. The method may include forming recesses into sidewalls of each lower fin portion to expose a lower surface of a respective upper fin portion, and forming a second semiconductor layer surrounding the fins including the exposed lower surfaces of the upper fin portions. The second semiconductor layer may include a second semiconductor material to generate stress in the first semiconductor material.

Asquans’ Holographic Lip Gloss is a non-sticky formulation which creates a full and voluminous look. Its soft texture is characterised by a unique shimmer, creating a highlight or strobe effect. Offered in five different colours; Clementine Crystal, Star Dust, Acid Wine, Unicorn Finish and Violet Voodoo.

However, it warned that any increased cost imposed on visitors to New Zealand will increase the expectations they have.

Until the 2017 vintage, the shiraz that grows in conjunction with the celebrated Lake’s Folly cabernet sauvignon has been used to provide power and blush to the paradoxically delicate elegance of the Cabernets wine. A portion still gets blended each vintage into this wine, but given the cracking conditions of 2017, Kempe thought it right to set aside some shiraz from the Hill Block to see how it fared on its own. He is quick to note, however, that this is nothing new.

Once a contradiction in terms, aperiodic crystals show instead that "long-range order" has never been defined. Whatever it means, decades of intense research have shown it to be more complex and surprising than anyone suspected …
