The two couples, originally from the US, moved in together as a polyamorous foursome in 2020 and the following year, Alysia and Taya delivered babies seven months apart. Neither woman knows who biologically fathered the kids, with Alysia maintaining they will help the children discover that down the road if they ever want to.

  Mobile phone battery life depends on a variety of factors. A line of best fit or regression model will help predict when a mobile phone’s battery will run out of charge. The time the phone is off and used are also factors to consider when calculating battery life. Many people find that their phones last about 18-24 months if they charge them every two days. But, for many people, this number is not sufficient. This means that it may not be realistic to expect the phone to last that long.
