I love my Doc Martens, but they didn’t always love me. While they’ll definitely up your style game, you’ll have to endure that infamous Doc Marten “break-in” phase complete with blood, sweat, tears, blisters, and chaffing. The journey has its rough patches and, like any goodrelationship, sometimes you need a third-party intervention. No, no – I’m not talking about a therapist (though one might help), I’m talking about the right pair of SOCKS. In my experience, the key to a healthy relationship with Docs is finding a good pair of socks. The best socks for Doc Martens ease the break-in…

While that is not enough to provide continuous broadband over Alaska as intended, Gedmark said the spacecraft could still be used as an in-orbit…

She started from the bottom, and now she’s here. Credit where it’s due, Twilight’s Child, unlike V.C. Andrews’ Heaven…
Key metrics: A study find that peer reviewers can often judge the originality, rigour and significance of new work consistently — at least in theoretical physics (courtesy: Shutterstock/Nixx-Photography) Theoretical physicists do a good job when peer reviewing scientific papers, but tend to be more impressed by the significance of new research rather than the rigour with which it was carried out.
