Great-Nephew Or Grand-Nephew – Which One Is Correct?
They're both correct. According to Oxford Languages, a great-nephew is defined as "a son of one's nephew or niece." While a grand nephew is defined as "another term for great-nephew." So they're just synonyms.

There's no air to breathe in space, so no. But he can survive not breathing for a long time.

The space is a vacuum - a near-perfect one with nearly zero pressure. That means there's no air there, as we know it. There are some particles, but it's not enough or too far apart to call it air.

The space is a vacuum – a near-perfect one with nearly zero pressure. That means there’s no air there, as we know it. There are some particles, but it’s not enough or too far apart to call it air.
Why there’s no air in space has the same reason as to why we have a hard time breathing in higher altitudes – gravity. The air (or atmosphere) is pulled by gravity toward the Earth’s surface, causing atmospheric pressure. Oxygen, especially, gets pulled and concentrated in the lower areas of the atmosphere, so the higher the altitude, the less oxygen there is.
In outer space, the Earth’s gravity no longer has an effect, so the air molecules just basically fly away that there’s barely anything at all.

The “valley of ashes” is basically a wasteland. It was first introduced in the second chapter of American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel entitled “The Great Gatsby.”
The valley of ashes is a depressing industrial narrow area located in between New York City and the resort villages of East and West Egg on the North Shore of Long Island. It is where the poverty-stricken and underprivileged live. It’s called the “valley of ashes” because all the smoke from the industrial dumping made it look like it’s a “valley of ashes.”
It represents the moral decay hidden in the beautiful facades of both East and West Egg and is a by-product of capitalism.

Yup. Surprisingly, a lot of people don’t know this.
Here’s how.
1. Remove the mouthpiece by pushing the plastic tabs up using a screwdriver.
2. Remove used cotton pads using a pair of tweezers.
3. Clean the inside with warm water and q-tips.
4. Cut clean cotton into the perfect size for your Juul pod and put it in.
5. Clean the bottom part by removing the rubber seal (also use a q-tip for this.)
6. After placing the flavor cap at the bottom of the pod, refill it with your preferred e-juice just below the fill line.
7. Squeeze the edges and replace the rubber seal of your pod to reseal it.
8. Place the mouthpiece back onto the pod by pushing it until you hear or feel it click. Make sure that there’s no leak by blowing through the mouthpiece. If you see some leak, remove the cartridge, wipe it dry, and put it back again.
9. Enjoy!
Important:
Wear nitrile gloves – the high concentration of nicotine in salt nic juices can be absorbed through your skin. Also, lay some towels on your workplace to catch any old e-juice and for easy cleanup.
See lessHow To Stop On A Skateboard?
One of the easiest braking techniques to learn is the back-foot deceleration technique.

One of the easiest braking techniques to learn is the back-foot deceleration technique. It’s done by slightly lowering your stance, taking your back foot off the board, and using it to skid along the ground (you leave your front foot on the board and use it for balance and direction). You’ll slow down by skidding, and from there, you’ll gradually add more pressure to your back foot to stop completely.
If you need or want to stop quicker, put more pressure on your back foot but make sure you’re also handling the board well with your front feet, or else you’ll have an unexpected split, lol.
The downside of this technique is that you’ll ruin the soles of your shoes.
See lessWhat Do You Call A Female Cat?
The general term for female cats is Molly. It's the female version of tomcat. If the female cat is unspayed, it's called a queen. Lastly, Dam. It's the lesser-known term since it's used mainly by breeders to refer to a rare or purebred female cat.

Depends on your pipes and system.
If you have a plastic (ABS or PVC) system, then it’s generally fine.
But, if you have a septic system and have old waste pipes or old metal pipes, then it’s better not to use them at all.
Drano and other acid-based drain opening products can damage some materials and burn holes in them causing more trouble for your pipes and your plumbers. Aside from more work, they’ll be exposed to a hazardous chemical – so always warn your plumbers if you’ve used any chemicals, so they can be prepared.

There's no actual Romeo and Juliet, but some say it is based on the story of two real lovers in 1303. Some say only the families, the Montagues, and the Capulets, are real but the story isn't.

Some say only the families, the Montagues, and the Capulets, are real but the story isn’t.
Some say the story is real and Shakespeare came to know about it from Arthur Brooke’s 1562 poem entitled The Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet and made his version of it.
See, the thing is, there are several other pieces of literature that have a similar plot to Romeo and Juliet, and that means at least some parts of the story are real – may it be the actual story, the characters, or the families.

It is the air molecules that absorb heat from the solar UV radiation in the atmosphere and the density of air in the mesosphere is less than the others.
That means, there are fewer air molecules that can absorb heat, and the absence of heat is cold.
