Ephemerae
Every day interesting "stuff" crosses my desk. Some isn't important enough to put on my site in any permanent way. But it is interesting enough to put here somehow, quickly, at least for a while.
These are ephemerae: collections of temporary, transitory tidbits.
This is where I put that stuff.
I add these in order by date, bottom to top. The latest is at the top. Which means, of course, that the oldest is at the bottom. But, you knew that.
There is no requirement for regularity. If you look at the dates you will see that sometimes months have passed between postings. You see, I have a very forgiving boss.

them to monitor the heartbeat of people with existing heart conditions. If it detects trouble it automatically calls for medical assistance.
