Until a few weeks ago, I thought I was an okay cook. I was wrong. In fact, I probably have no business writing about cooking, but since when has lack of knowledge stopped me.
Recently, during a two-hour conversation with America’s Test Kitchen’s executive reviewer Lisa McManus, who really does know what she’s talking about, I learned that my kitchen, though it contains plenty of cookware, is in fact ill-equipped. Of the four essential pieces of cookware McManus says every kitchen should have I had only two. I was lacking a Dutch oven and a cast-iron skillet.
No wonder my cooking isn’t better!
Now, as a compulsive home organizer and improver, I pride myself on having only what I need and no more, and on buying household goods once and buying them right. However, in my kitchen, not only do I not have the right basics, but what I do have is subpar.
“What are you doing?” my husband asked when he found me in the kitchen with our pans all over the counter.
“Our pans are all wrong?”
“What’s wrong with our pans?”
“The nonstick surfaces are shot. The handles are plastic. The metal is too thin.”
“What are you telling me?”
“If you want better dinners, we have some pan purging and purchasing to do,” I said. While normally DC would question the need to buy more anything, the prospect of better meals prompted him to hop online.
“Since the pandemic, folks are cooking more at home and turning to us,” McManus said. A multimedia company, America’s Test Kitchen teaches cooking basics through public TV shows and magazines.
McManus had her work cut out with me. I told her about my cookware, an assortment of 10 pots and pans, half of which I have never used. “That’s typical of people who buy sets,” McManus said. The four pans I do use are nonstick, not her first choice, and, I learned, they were also well past their prime, if they ever had a prime. The surface of a nonstick pan only lasts a few years, and mine were going on 10. They weren’t fit for a stray-dog cookout.
“In our kitchens, we test pieces, not sets,” she said. A pan test involves making the same recipe over and over in many pans of the same size from different makers to see what works and what annoys. “If I am fighting the pan, and burning my hand, it’s not working.”
Because good pans are both a household staple and an investment, McManus tells home cooks to buy pans one at a time based on what they cook and can afford. Start with a few durable, flexible workhorses that will earn their keep. Here are four pieces every well-equipped kitchen should have, and the brands ATK recommends:
A Dutch oven. These high-sided, cast-iron, enamel-coated cookers can go from stovetop to oven, and can be used to steam, deep fry, braise, bake or roast. Choose round over oval because round fits burners better, and get the 7-quart size. Cooks universally agree that Le Creuset makes the winning Dutch oven, but it’s expensive at (cough) around $375. However, McManus also recommends a best-buy runner up, the much less expensive Cuisinart Chef’s Classic Enameled Dutch Oven Casserole.
A large four-quart saucepan with lid. A high-walled saucepan that can handle gravies, soups and puddings is another kitchen must. At ATK the category winner is the All-Clad tri-ply stainless saucepan. “You can always cook a small amount of food in a large pan, but you can’t cook a large amount in a small pan,” McManus said. So start large and get smaller pans later.
A 12-inch stainless-steel skillet. Again, the ATK team favorite is the All-Clad D3 stainless-steel frying pan with lid, which sells for around $120. “That may sound like a lot, but these are the hardest workers in your kitchen,” McManus said.
A second 12-inch skillet made of cast iron, or carbon steel. Lodge makes the winning cast-iron skillet, which, for a change, fits most budgets. “This is the one pan to get if you’re broke,” she said. Last week, I found a Lodge 12-inch cast-iron pan at Home Goods for $15. I have cooked in it every night since, and dinners are markedly better. Carbon steel offers the same benefits of cast iron but is lighter. The ATK team favorite is the Matfer Bourgeat Black Steel round frying pan. When properly cared for and seasoned, both materials develop nonstick surfaces naturally, and never need replacing.
Nice to have. After you have your core set, the following items fall in the would-be-nice-to-have category: A generous stockpot (eight to 12 quarts), a two-quart saucepan, a 10-inch skillet, and an 8-inch skillet.
Avoid nonstick. Although nonstick pans are easy to clean and inexpensive, don’t make them your first purchase, McManus said. The coating goes downhill fast, so they need to be replaced every few years. With wear, the coating, usually made of polytetrafluoroethylene, or PTFE, (popularly known as Teflon), blisters, peels and gets in food, which has raised health concerns. Though alternative nonstick surfaces are available, you’ll be better off starting your recipe with a little oil in a regular pan.
My worn-out nonstick cookware is panned and banned. A Le Creuset and a tri-ply stainless frying pan are on the way, and my cast-iron skillet and I are making beautiful meals together.
Join me next week to find out how to care for your cookware, so your investment lasts a lifetime.

I have a Model 3 and I ride XL frames. I think my biggest one’s a 63cm. This also means I have the drivers seat all the way back.
All my bike’s fit with only taking the front wheel off…BUT, I have to lower the seat because that top of seat to bottom of rear wheel/crank dimension doesn’t slide in sideways between the rear wheel wells in the trunk. This makes a mtn bike easier because you simply lower the dropper post and take the front wheel off. With my road/gravel bikes I have to get out the allen wrenches and drop the seat and then make sure I set the seat back to the right height. Not a deal breaker, but kind of an annoying added step. Obviously if you take both wheels off it fits easily without dropping the seat. With QR skewers that’s almost easier than messing with the seat height.
I’ve looked at getting a roof rack but they’re uglyAF on the car, it kills the aesthetic, and you lose mpg (or kwh/m, or however it’s measured). I’ve looked at the seasucker things, but they’re expensive and there’s anecdotes on them either cracking the glass or denting the trunk if you mount it to the car body. And anytime you want to ride then you gotta back the car out into the driveway, get the seasucker, make sure the glass is clean, install it x2, take the wheel off the bike, mount the bike, strap the crank so it doesn’t spin into your roof, and make sure not to forget the front wheel…and do all that in reverse without driving into the garage when you get home. Eventually I want to put a “stealth hitch” on with a 1up…seems like the simplest/cleanest/cheapest/most efficient way to haul a bike with a TM3. I believe you can buy a model Y with a hitch already on it. Otherwise it’s like $300-400 to get an aftermarket one that mounts to the frame.
Also, the added drag would make a big different on the range, in case you need to travel far.
I have a model S and can fit 2 pairs of skis in trunk, as well as all the luggage, and the kids have the back seat all for themselves. Winter time already cuts the range by 30%, if we would also have the skis on the roof it would cut the range perhaps by further 20%
Useless response from me but when I saw the headline I thought that Tesla were making electric bikes!
On the bike carrying side of things, on my last car I had a tow bar fitted (that could be removed quite easily) and a bike carrier that was solid enough for me to stand on. Reasonably aerodynamic (although I don’t know how you’d measure that outside of a lab) and I certainly never had to worry about height restriction barriers. Not as easy as chucking in the back though, but if you’re camping or taking more than one bike it’s great.
Tow bar route is better than the roof route in most cases for most cars in terms of drag, ease of install, and “bike gets crunched” risk.
Now if you get rear ended it’s also a risk but then the other car would be responsible for that.
And used it in my 535 sedan and MDX. It’s big enough with my 58cm frame that I can remove just the front disc wheel, wrap the blanket around the bike, and have the wheel cradled by the frame and protect the paint.

At the very least 20 easyJet flights have been cancelled pursuing times of delays and cancellations from airlines throughout the UK’s airports.
The funds airline confirmed “a tiny portion” of flights were cancelled on Saturday, largely pointing to troubles at London’s Gatwick airport and Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport.

“Airlines carry on to work in a challenging atmosphere which include with air traffic command limits working right now at London Gatwick and difficulties with ground functions at quite a few airports together with at Amsterdam in which the airport has requested airways to terminate some traveling now. As a outcome a little proportion of additional flights could be subject matter to disruption currently.
“We completely comprehend the inconvenience this will have caused to our consumers and we are extremely sorry for this.”
A Gatwick Airport spokesman said air targeted traffic command constraints are largely down to climate and staffing problems across Europe, and the airport is not the only one struggling with challenges.
He reported: “Poor temperature and air targeted traffic manage difficulties throughout Europe are limiting the selection of flights that can use European airspace and is causing important delays and some cancellations at Gatwick.”
Travellers scheduling to use the bank holiday break for an abroad break have been blighted by travel chaos this 7 days, with airways cancelling more than 150 Uk flights on Wednesday.
The aviation field is struggling from team shortages soon after permitting thousands of men and women go in the course of the coronavirus pandemic.
On Wednesday, the Govt met with senior leaders from the aviation marketplace which include airports, airlines and ground managing providers to aid deal with the troubles.

Victorians have been living through a period of social and political restrictions on the Australian way of life that is unprecedented in our history.
Since March 2020, Victorians have been required to comply with strict stay at home orders and restrictions on public activities and gatherings. These restrictions have been issued under
the State of Emergency declared under the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 (‘the PHW Act’) and through powers exercised by the Chief Health Officer and other authorised officers.
Research by the Institute of Public Affairs has highlighted how the state government’s response to COVID-19 has undermined the rule of law and in some cases has been potentially unlawful.

$5 Port Authority ConnectCard fee runs into opposition
June 30, 2015 11:21 PM
Port Authority of Allegheny County
"I not only oppose the $5 ConnectCard fee, I believe we should be getting a discount for using them," said Edward Wagner of Brighton Heights.
By Jon Schmitz / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Port Authority’s plan to charge a one-time fee of up to $5 for ConnectCards, the smartcards used by riders to pay their fares electronically, got less than rave reviews at a public hearing Tuesday.
But it seemed unlikely that negative comments from riders would dissuade the authority board from approving the fee. The effective date already has been set for Aug. 1, and the budget adopted by the board for the coming fiscal year assumes a small amount of revenue coming in from the fee.
“No decision has been made,” board chairman Robert Hurley said after hearing from several riders who thought the fee would be counterproductive. The full board is scheduled to vote July 24.
About 350,000 ConnectCards have been issued for free since the authority launched the system in 2012, and those riders won’t be charged. Anyone who gets a ConnectCard this month also will avoid the fee, which would be charged for new and replacement cards starting next month. Cards can be obtained at the authority’s Downtown Service Center on Smithfield Street and at most Giant Eagle supermarkets.
Once a fee is in place, the cards will be available for purchase at vending machines at major stops and stations on bus and rail routes, authority CEO Ellen McLean said.
If a card needs to be replaced because it malfunctions, the rider won’t be charged for the new card, authority spokesman Jim Ritchie said.
Several speakers at Tuesday’s hearing noted that the cards, which the rider taps at the farebox, are benefiting riders by speeding up boarding and alighting and saving the authority money by reducing its cash handling expenses.
“Any charge for new ConnectCards, particularly a charge as exorbitant as $5, would be a great disincentive to persuading new and occasional riders to pay via ConnectCard,” said Glenn Walsh of Mt. Lebanon, a longtime transit activist.
“I not only oppose the $5 ConnectCard fee, I believe we should be getting a discount for using them,” said Edward Wagner of Brighton Heights. That is an idea that the authority has under consideration as it reviews all of its fare policies.
Earl Pearson of Munhall said if a fee is charged, it should be returned as cash value on the rider’s card if the rider registers it with the agency. Such an incentive is in place in Chicago, he said.
Linda Warman of Duquesne, who has used a card since February 2014, said she researched the issue and learned that ConnectCards cost about $3 to produce. “So where’s the extra $2 going to go? I think it’s a travesty to charge anyone $5 to replace these,” she said.
Molly Nichols of Pittsburghers for Public Transit urged the authority to seek a sponsorship to cover the cost, and if a fee is imposed, to waive it for lower-income residents and people with disabilities.

Macworld | iWorld — the awkward new name for the venerable trade show and conference — is nearly upon us. From 26 January 2012 to 28 January 2012, you’ll find TidBITS staffers among the thousands of attendees at the Moscone Center’s West Hall in San Francisco. Here’s a list of what we’ll be up to — we’ll update this article with any changes that take place before the show starts.
Thursday, 26 January — Along with the expo floor opening, a number of TidBITS staffers have talks on Thursday.
- 10:00 AM: Joe Kissell offers Siri secrets in a session designed to show how far Apple’s voice-processing technology can take you — and how far it still has to go. Joe has advice for how to make Siri jump through all kinds of interesting hoops, including interacting with your Mac and other devices. He also shows Siri’s lighter side, and discusses where Siri may be headed in the future.
- 11:00 AM: Glenn Fleishman interviews Susan Orlean, New Yorker staff writer and author of “The Orchid Thief,” on the main stage. Orlean is best known for her long-form non-fiction, but she’s slowly become a real tech geek as well, garnering over 200,000 Twitter followers and becoming an early adopter. Glenn talks to Orlean about how she uses technology in her work, and how Twitter helped her write her latest book, “Rin Tin Tin,” about the Hollywood dog star. (She should be available briefly afterwards to sign books.)
1:00 PM: Tonya Engst joins host Chuck Joiner and other panelists in Parenting in the Mobile Internet Age, a group discussion about parenting dilemmas and victories with texting, screen time, Facebook, Minecraft, and more.
2:00 PM: Joe Kissell discusses unitasking — you know, the opposite of multitasking — with Macs and iOS devices, including surprising facts about how computers and humans handle multiple tasks. He shows how unitasking can make you much more productive, and how to pull it off. Joe also discusses how current Apple technology that seems to facilitate unitasking often, ironically, does just the opposite (and what to do about it).
2:00 PM: Glenn Fleishman and Lex Friedman talk about how to work while standing and walking. Yes, they talk the walk from their experiences in making a transition from sitting all day to a combination of sitting, standing, and walking on a treadmill. Glenn and Lex spoke to Chuck Joiner in a preview of their session for MacVoices.
5:00 PM: Many of us will be meeting in Moscone West under the escalators on the first floor, in preparation for the annual Netters’ Dinner. At 5:30, we’ll all perambulate to the Hunan at Sansome and Broadway, where the hot and spicy Chinese dinner (vegetarian dishes are available) costs $20. You must register in advance by Tuesday, January 24th, via Kagi; the link has all the details. Jon Pugh will once again be hosting, and it promises to be another great night of food and conversation.
Friday, 27 January — We don’t have much scheduled for Friday, so that means we’ll be spending most of the day on the show floor, looking for what’s new and interesting to write about.
- 3:00 PM: [Update: Our friends at Macworld | iWorld have asked that we don’t do this, since we’re not paying for booth space, which is what’s necessary to conduct business at the show, and that’s reasonable. So we’ll still show up at this spot to chat, but we won’t be taking memberships in person at Moscone. -Adam]
We’re probably going to regret this, but we can’t resist trying out the Square credit card reader that we got while working on Dennis Wurster’s article, “Square Provides Easy Alternative to Cash and Checks” (8 November 2011). So, if you want to become a TidBITS member in person, come find Adam
and Tonya, and possibly other TidBITS staffers, near the escalators in the lobby of Moscone West, and we’ll take the Square for a spin. (We’ll have to enable your membership manually after the show, so it will be easiest if you make sure you have a TidBITS account first.) If you can’t make this date, see if you can track Adam down some other time.
4:00 PM: Glenn Fleishman will be part of a live taping at the Macworld Live stage of The Incomparable podcast, a geeky panel discussion show about comics books, science-fiction novels, television shows, nerdcore, and much more. The topic is how technology is portrayed in science fiction. He, Serenity Caldwell, Dan Moren, and Jason Snell — you may know them from a little publication known as Macworld — fill the panel.
Saturday, 28 January — As with last year, the show continues through to Saturday, making it easy for San Francisco residents who can’t take time off during the work week to attend.
11:00 AM: The entire TidBITS staff (Adam, Tonya, Glenn, Jeff, Joe, and Michael) will be doing a panel discussion on the Macworld Live stage with Chris Breen about the past, present, and future of ebook publishing, with an emphasis on what it means to be a writer, editor, and publisher in a world where publishing is not the sole realm of large companies with printing presses.
2:00 PM: Glenn Fleishman will be returning to the Macworld Live stage to join host Lex Friedman and other pundits to talk about the software we love, but how it really needs a missing feature we can’t live without.
3:00 PM: Jeff Carlson is giving a presentation about iMovie on the iPad at the Apple Store San Francisco (located at One Stockton Street, a couple of blocks from Moscone Center), talking about his books The iPad 2 Pocket Guide and The iMovie ’11 Project Book, and how to edit your video footage on location while inspiration is still fresh.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - Haibatullah Akhundzada, the Islamic legal scholar appointed leader of the Afghan Taliban on Wednesday, was not the obvious choice when senior members of the militant movement gathered to appoint a new “emir”.
The “shura”, or leadership council, was convened in haste after leader Mullah Akhtar Mansour was killed by a U.S. drone strike in Pakistan on Saturday, presenting the Taliban with their second succession in less than a year.
Some Taliban decision makers chose to call into the shura by mobile phone or Internet-based voice apps, according to one attendee, possibly wary of attending a large gathering after Mansour’s killing.
Unlike a similar meeting held last July, when an important faction walked out in protest, delegates agreed on the choice of Akhundzada, said Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
But there was hesitation, as senior Taliban figures chose Akhundzada only after two other candidates were ruled out, said two members of the council who attended the meeting.
“Sirajuddin Haqqani was the first choice of the majority of the shura,” said one of the members. Reuters could not independently confirm his, or other accounts of what happened at the meeting.
“But (they) feared it could increase their hardships if Haqqani is made emir as he is the most wanted Taliban figure in the United States.”
Haqqani, who heads a feared network behind a series of deadly bombings in the Afghan capital Kabul in recent years, has a $10 million bounty on his head.
Eventually Haqqani, who was not present but had representatives at the gathering, withdrew his candidacy.
Some analysts predict that, should Haqqani accept the new leadership structure, he could continue his military leadership role.
SON BUT NOT HEIR
After Haqqani was sidelined, Mullah Mohammad Yaqoob, a son of late Taliban founder Mullah Mohammad Omar who attended the meeting, was put forward as leader, but turned the offer down because he feared he lacked battle experience and was too young, said a Taliban commander at the “shura”.
Yaqoob, believed to be in his mid-20s, stormed out of the council last year when Mansour was appointed Omar’s successor, deepening divisions that plague the movement to this day.
This time Yaqoob proposed Akhundzada, who was chosen after the opinions of senior clerics from the Afghan provinces of Zabul, Kandahar and Helmand were consulted, said the commander.
“He (Akhundzada) initially made some excuses but had to keep quiet after the majority of the shura members insisted,” he added. Both Yaqoob and Haqqani were named as deputies to the new leader.
What Akhundzada’s elevation means for the insurgency in Afghanistan is not immediately clear.
He has been identified by the United Nations as the former chief of the hardline justice system imposed by the Taliban when it ruled Afghanistan between 1996 and 2001.
Within an hour of the appointment being announced, a bus carrying court employees west of Kabul was blown up in a suicide attack, killing up to 11 people and wounding more. The Taliban claimed responsibility.
Experts said the leadership announcement came sooner than most had expected, and made sense from a point of view of stability.
“He (Akhundzada) is of the older generation, he is one of the founders. So he has more respect as a religious scholar, while Sirajuddin Haqqani and Yaqoob ... are pretty young,” said Thomas Ruttig of the Afghanistan Analysts Network.

Overwhelmed by rising attendance, national parks are grappling with how to both cater to visitors and protect their lands.
Growing up near Glacier National Park in the 1990s, I remember my parents deciding on a whim to take my siblings and me there one weekend. With lunch pails in tow and backpacks that allowed them to haul a kid or two along for the ride, they could easily find parking in the Avalanche area on a Saturday afternoon. Today, due to rising park attendance across the country, they might not have been so lucky.
As a teenager growing up in Montana, I used to resent the fact that I lived in “the middle of nowhere.” At that age, I could think of nothing better than to escape to a place where more was happening. To me, Montana seemed removed from the rest of the world. Sure, it was a kind of Eden, but it was one I begged to be expelled from. If I had known then that the area of my youth would one day be “discovered,” I might have felt differently.
Over the past few years, visitation to Montana’s Glacier National Park has exploded. Each year, a new record for park attendance is broken while the small nearby towns swell with incoming tourism. This year, Glacier National Park has implemented a new ticketing system that is in part due to social distancing measures brought on by COVID-19, and a way for the park to better handle the rising influx of visitors. Doug Mitchell, who is the Executive Director of the Glacier National Park Conservancy, has seen the park overwhelmed by guests in the past few years.

“Historically, Glacier Park was known as a ‘hikers’ park.’ [It was] a place experienced national park visitors might visit after having gone to a few other parks,” explains Mitchell. “Now—particularly with the rising interest in seeing the glaciers of the park before they are gone—we are getting more visitors for whom a trip to Glacier marks their first visit to a national park. That’s a great thing, but it also changes the way the park has to think about education, interpretation, and resource protection to make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience in a way that respects and protects the ecosystem that makes Glacier Park special.”
Rising attendance numbers aren’t something just happening at Glacier National Park. During the height of the pandemic, an unprecedented number of Americans began appreciating their national parks as a way to escape the confines of quarantine. Yellowstone National Park saw a 2% increase in visitation numbers, and there are similar statistics for many of the other national parks scattered throughout the United States. Will increased interest in visiting our national parks harm the very places we’ve come to appreciate this year?
I often share information about the national parks with my following and was shocked at how many people were angry about the new ticketing systems being adopted to stave off crowds. There was a clear sense of entitlement that I found disturbing. Why did travelers feel as though these natural spaces owed them anything? And even worse, did visitors not recognize the impact of their presence in these sacred places (and in some cases, religiously sacred to Indigenous peoples)? Public lands were created for people to visit and as a way to preserve these vital areas.
“I would hope, for all of us, it would begin with embracing the ‘Leave No Trace’ ethic. That’s a great place to start and would make great strides in reducing the kind of resource damage that then requires restoration and repair,” adds Mitchell. “Wallace Stegner famously said: ‘National Parks are the best idea we ever had. Absolutely American. Absolutely democratic. They reflect us at our best rather than our worst.’ Our challenge then is to be our best.”
Remembering the original intent of the National Park System might mean some sacrifice on the part of visitors today. It might mean doing more research into what is open and what is not. It might mean forgoing specific sites in an effort to help them recover from the effects of over-tourism. It could mean looking to state parks and national forests as places to recreate. Most of all, it may mean looking at the parks as an investment in our future, rather than as places meant to offer immediate gratification.
I recently biked the Going-to-the-Sun-Road, an architectural marvel that winds itself through the park and—up until recently—had been closed to cars. Not many people I know, including locals, choose to bike up at the 5% gradient because it is challenging. My muscles scolded me the entire ride up as I wondered why I didn’t just wait until I could let a vehicle do the hard work for me. But the moments I had to myself—without other bikers, tourists, and cars — reminded me of how impermanent I am.
The presence of the mountains was overwhelming and comforting at the same time. It wasn’t easy to make the extra effort to appreciate the “Crown of the Continent,” but maybe we should ask a little bit more of ourselves since nature very rarely makes demands of us. As John Muir once said, “To behold this alone is worth the pains of any excursion one thousand times over.” Our national parks are worth that extra effort and love.

State health officials reported 8,198 COVID-19 diagnoses and 99 deaths tied to COVID-19 Monday.
The Department of Health shows a total of 1,280,177 positive cases and 21,613 deaths. Of those cases, 21,862 are nonresidents, as are 305 of the deaths.
Through Monday morning, 122,881 people have been vaccinated.
Daily new cases have routinely topped 10,000, and Florida became the third state to record more than 1 million cases this month.
For all-day Sunday, the latest complete day for which data is available, officials counted 8,057 cases from 84,568 residents tested, continuing a dip in diagnoses and daily testing that began Friday, on Christmas Day. Among the new positives, the median age was 42.
Those days also saw an increasing share of tests return positive. On Thursday, Christmas Eve, the positivity rate was at 7.89%, a two-week low. However, that rate was 11.08% Sunday, the highest since late July.
COVID-19 cases and deaths reported by state health officials can sometimes be reported days or weeks later.
Over the summer, Gov. Ron DeSantis shifted the state’s data focus away from the raw count and percent positivity rates, pointing instead to hospital visits with symptoms related to COVID-19 as his preferred metric.
After peaking at 15,999 coronavirus-related hospitalizations the week of July 5, DOH reported that hospitalizations declined. For eight consecutive weeks as of two weeks ago, the state has recorded week-over increases in hospitalizations.
Last week showed a downturn in new hospitalizations, from 9,632 two weeks ago to 9,529 last week. Officials may still update last week’s count and instead show an increase, as has happened in recent weeks.
As of Monday, 61,663 Floridians have been hospitalized after DOH recorded 204 new hospitalizations, a relatively low single-day increase. The Agency for Health Care Administration reports that 6,110 people are currently hospitalized with the disease.
By comparison, 2,081 people were hospitalized with primary diagnoses of COVID-19 on Oct. 1; 2,371 were hospitalized on Nov. 1; 4,282 were hospitalized on Dec. 1; and 5,514 were hospitalized on Dec. 21, according to information The News Service of Florida has compiled from the agency’s website.
Monday marks the third week of Florida’s vaccine rollout. People 65 and older as well as people hospitals deem extremely vulnerable to COVID-19 will be the next cohort to be vaccinated.
The United States has seen a nationwide surge in coronavirus cases that has disproportionately affected the Upper Midwest.
Florida, the third most populous state, is only behind California and Texas in the total count of new cases. Officials in California have reported 2.16 million cases, including a record high 53,711 in an update last week, while officials in Texas have confirmed 1.48 million cases.
Nine months prior to crossing 1 million infections, after officials confirmed the first COVID-19 cases in Florida on March 1, DeSantis ordered Surgeon General Scott Rivkees to declare a public health emergency in the state. Eight days after the emergency declaration, DeSantis issued a state of emergency, and both orders remain ongoing.
After the initial outbreak of new cases, at a time when access to coronavirus testing was low, officials had identified about 20,000 COVID-19 cases in Florida, recording just over 1,300 cases in a single day. After outbreaks subsided throughout April and May, cases began spiking in June and peaked at more than 15,000 cases in mid-July. In July alone, officials confirmed more than 300,000 new cases and the state’s total reached 470,386 by the end of the month.
Since October, cases have been on the rise again. The latest resurgence in coronavirus outbreaks has been a gradual increase in daily cases as opposed to the spike observed in the summer.

CINCINNATI (WKRC) – Health care providers are sounding the alarm with a new campaign aimed at asking questions to help prevent suicide as teen suicide numbers continue to climb.
Tuesday is #NationalSuicidePreventionDay, and #mentahealthspecialists at the #CenterforSuicidePrevention and Research at Nationwide Children’s Hospital now say since half of all #mentalhealthissues start by the age of 14, parents and others should begin asking young people directly if they are thinking of taking their own life.
Nationwide Children’s says to help #teens open up about their emotions, they recommend you don’t wait for a crisis and you check in regularly with kids about thoughts of wanting to end their life.
Welcome to the “next chapter” of my life… being a voice and an advocate for #mentalhealthawarenessandsuicideprevention, especially pertaining to our younger generation of students and student-athletes.
Getting men to speak up and reach out for help and assistance is one of my passions. Us men need to not suffer in silence or drown our sorrows in alcohol, hang out at bars and strip joints, or get involved with drug use.
Having gone through a recent bout of #depression and #suicidalthoughts myself, I realize now, that I can make a huge difference in the lives of so many by sharing my story, and by sharing various resources I come across as I work in this space. #http://bit.ly/JamesMentalHealthArticle
It’s also suggested by these experts and those at the Lindner Center of Hope in Mason that some early warning signs include changes in mood, feelings of hopelessness and even if kids talk about bullying or don’t appear to recover from being bullied in the past. Dr. Shana Feibel from the center says many people do carry baggage from past bullying and that people don’t realize how much of an impact bullying can make.
If someone you love is thinking about #suicide, you can reach out to the Lindner Center of Hope here, or you can call the #NationalSuicidePreventionLifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255). There’s also a crisis text line by texting “Start” to 741-741.

Guide to Painting Wooden Kits
A good starting point for painting is a spray with an acrylic primer. Use red oxide for brickwork, white for woodwork and grey for other parts. Thereafter almost any paint can be used, acrylic, enamel or household emulsion (tester pots are a good source).
Windows and doors
Windows are usually supplied in two halves, with a piece of film sandwiched in between for the glass. The lighter sides go back-to-back. It is a good idea to fully paint the windows before assembly.
Using a spray can or airbrush will cause the windows to fly off never to be seen again, so stick them gently, lighter side down, onto a piece of masking tape stuck to a board, and spray them with white acrylic primer and let dry. Apply further coats of your chosen colour as required, off-white and dirty cream look good for most situations. Don’t use pure white as is looks wrong on a scale model because it is too bright. Glazed doors are treated in the same way.
The following method works very well and looks realistic:
Fill in any wall joints and scribe any continuous brick courses. Mask off other parts and spray the brickwork with red-oxide acrylic primer and let dry. If any of the bricks are intended to be blue engineering brick then paint them now with a dark blue-grey colour.
Mix up a little runny powder filler with water and tint it light grey, or to your preferred mortar colour. Rub this into the bricks and immediately clean it off the face of the bricks. This will tone down the red-oxide nicely and looks very good.

Hundreds of Salafis arrested in Tunisia
DUBAI - Agence France-Presse
Tunisian police fire tear gas as clashes broke out with radical Islamists in Ettadhamen, a neighbourhood 15 kilometers west of Tunis. AFP photoTunisian police arrested some 200 members of the hardline Islamist Ansar al-Sharia in weekend clashes that erupted after a ban on their congress, Prime Minister Ali Larayedh said.
“Those who have been arrested number 200,” Larayedh said at the Doha Forum in the Gulf state of Qatar, quoted by the Arabic daily Al-Hayat.
One protester was killed and 15 policemen wounded in the clashes that broke out in Tunis on May 19 after the authorities banned Ansar al-Sharia (Partisans of Islamic Law) from staging their annual congress. The fighting erupted when Ansar al-Sharia urged its followers to mass in the capital’s suburb of Ettadhamen in defiance of a ban on their gathering in the central city of Kairouan.
The Tunisian leader warned of firm action against Ansar al-Sharia, an organization that he said has links to and is involved in “terrorism.”
“This group is engaged in violence, is opposed to the state and revolts” against the authorities, he said. “We will deal with extremism firmly, we will be rigid,” said Larayedh, a former interior minister and member of the ruling party Ennahda.
However, the fugitive leader of Ansar al-Sharia, had said his supporters cannot be defeated despite their “persecution,” in a recording posted online late May 19. “You have shown the entire world that your efforts cannot be defeated despite the persecution of your leaders,” Abu Iyadh said.

Our Imperial White tea comes from Ningde in China. Ningde is nestled between the mountains and the ocean in the northeastern corner of China’s Fujian province. The region is full of wild mountains and lushly forested hilltops that look out over emerald tea gardens and intricately terraced slopes and valleys. The region is also known as Min Dong in reference to the ancient Min culture of southeastern China. Tea has been growing in Ningde for centuries and longstanding green and white tea-making traditions continue to this day.
The flavor of Ningde teas can vary drastically depending on their proximity to the coast or inland mountains. This tea was grown on a high elevation mountain further inland and has a characteristic clean, clear aroma and taste.
Using a “Fu Yun” leaf varietal, Imperial White is made by withering the tea indoors for several hours and air-drying in special rotating tea ovens. No rolling or bruising of the leaf is performed.

The ‘brilliant’ trait that Erik ten Hag and Sir Alex Ferguson share
Gary Neville believes Erik ten Hag’s “brilliant” use of substitutions is reminiscent of both Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho.
The Dutchman secured his first trophy as Manchester United manager with victory in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United.
Casemiro opened the scoring just after the half-hour mark at Wembley, with Marcus Rashford soon adding a second before half-time.
From there, Ten Hag’s side rarely appeared under threat, holding on to seal a 2-0 victory as the shrewd half-time introduction of Aaron Wan-Bissaka at right back helped Manchester United see things out.
Neville was left impressed by the manager’s prompt intervention, seeing encouraging signs that remind the former England international of two of the Premier League’s most successful managers.
“[Sir Alex Ferguson] was unbelievable at affecting momentum within games and Jose [Mourinho] was great at Chelsea interfering with games with his subs,” Neville tweeted.
“Wouldn’t say [Erik ten Hag] is there yet (due to both SAF and Jose achievements) but he makes brilliant substitutions and changes within matches. He doesn’t wait!”
The cup triumph continues an encouraging period for the Old Trafford club after Ten Hag’s summer appointment as manager.
After an up-and-down start, the former Ajax boss has settled in and guided the club up to third in the Premier League, just six points behind cross-town rivals Manchester City and with a game in hand.
Neville feels that Ten Hag’s understanding of in-game management is particularly developed, suggesting that many coaches struggle to see the bigger picture from the touchline.
“One of the hardest things I found as a coach (their were many) was reading the game at ground level!” the former Valencia manager said. “Sir Alex Ferguson used to watch a match first half from the stands to gain a clearer understanding of the game. He even raised the dugouts at OT. So many coaches make subs that we all think: ‘Why have they done that?’
“I’m convinced it’s because they can’t see the game properly . A lot of the time you see legs and bodies and not really what’s happening. That’s why a lot of clubs have the coach in the directors box watching for them to spot the details.
“It’s one of the hardest things to do as a coach to get your subs right. Watching a game from the perfect viewing point and with the tactical camera gives you an advantage in reading the game. Managers used to go in the stand but now the perception is ‘you have to be down with the players’.”

IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced a series of investments in Sub-Saharan Africa that are designed to accelerate development of new markets, enablement of crucial ICT skills and creation of new jobs.
The company, which has operated in Africa for nearly six decades, expects to increase its investment by more than $US120 million (more than R820 million) over the next two years. In the coming year, IBM expects to hire up to 100 students from Sub-Saharan universities to meet the growing demand in services, global delivery and software development.
“The Sub-Saharan African market is poised for double-digit growth flowing from the development and expansion of telecommunications networks, power grids and transport infrastructure,” said Mark Harris, Managing Director, IBM South and Central Africa. “Private and public sector investment in the region is transforming the ability of the market to participate in the global economy.”
Among IBM’s market commitments is the creation of an Africa Innovation Centre that will house the continent’s first High Performance On Demand Solutions Lab (HiPODS). Small businesses, entrepreneurs, business partners and other clients will benefit from the lab’s advanced software development capabilities as well as access to high-end servers and storage equipment. The African Innovation Centre will also build custom solutions to drive automation, virtualisation and standards into clients’ business and IT infrastructures.
The South Africa lab joins a global network of seven specialised IBM facilities, including sites in Brazil, China and India, as well as Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. It is scheduled to open during the second quarter of next year.
Further, IBM has named senior executive Dr. Robert Mayberry general manager and vice president, emerging markets, Sub-Saharan Africa. Based in Johannesburg, Dr. Mayberry is responsible for designing and executing IBM’s strategy for expanding into new markets in the region. He holds a PhD in Computer Science and has extensive experience across various industry sectors and IBM businesses managing strategic alliances, mergers and acquisitions, software engineering for application development, as well as intelligent devices and wireless networks.
“Africa is an increasingly attractive investment environment for global companies such as IBM,” said Dr. Mayberry. “IBM is committed to being part of Africa’s economic transformation into a major player in the global market place.”
These moves build on other recent investments IBM has made in Sub-Saharan Africa, including:
* The Integrated Delivery Centre (IDC), in which IBM has invested $120 million since 2005. Through the IDC, IBM has created 1500 new jobs, and is servicing more than 300 global and regional clients from Johannesburg.
* A $15 million Business Continuity and Recovery Services facility -- which has boosted IBM’s service delivery capabilities in a way unrivalled in the Sub-Saharan African region.
* IBM recently launched the Small Business Toolkit (http://southafrica.smetoolkit.org) in South Africa. The goal of the free online resource is to increase the reach of local small business into the global economy by improving the productivity, efficiency and capacity of the estimated 600,000 active small businesses in South Africa as well as improve their access to capital and new markets.
* IBM currently has formal university partnerships and training programmes with Vaal University of Technology and Tshwane University of Technology in South Africa, yielding jobs for more than 180 IT graduates.
In addition to its South African offices, IBM maintains offices in Nigeria and Kenya, and operates in 18 other countries across the continent via business partners.

US Drops ‘Mother of All Bombs’ in Afghanistan, Russia Unveils ‘Father of All Bombs’
US, for the first time in history, dropped the “mother of all bombs” (MOAB) on Islamic State forces in Afghanistan last Thursday, April 13. The biggest non-nuclear bomb in the United States’ arsenal has been unleashed in the Achin district on the eastern side of Afghanistan. The bomb was aimed towards a network of caves and tunnels used by the terrorist group, both as shelter and as passageways in the Nangarhar province.
The US government confirmed the use of MOAB and assured that there was no civilian casualty during the attack in Afghanistan. An Afghan National Army official validates the news yet claims that he is not aware of the size of the bomb. He did say however, that the US troops had been using all sorts of armament in their fight against the terrorist group.
Military officials claimed that the strike was conducted by the US in order to lessen the threat faced by both the Afghan and US troops who are sweeping the area. They also aim to cause as much damage as possible to the facilities used by the IS fighters.
The MOAB or technically known as GBU-43, is a GPS-guided weapon that weighs around 21,600 pounds. Although it is very powerful, it is considered as a conventional bomb because it does not have the same properties as an atomic or nuclear bomb has. When detonated, the bomb also forms a mushroom-like cloud and sends tremors around its immediate surroundings.
Despite the size and destructive power of the MOAB, Russia is still not impressed as they claim that they have a much bigger bomb. If the US has MOAB, Russia has FOAB or “father of all bombs”, which is almost twice as destructive as its US counterpart. The FOAB is a thermobaric bomb which explodes on top of the target and incinerates everything its blast radius comes in contact with.

The PowerBeam 300 accurately pinpoints source of ultrasound to within 1 degree from center and improves the sensitivity of the UL101. The “PB300” was originally designed for the indication and location of corona discharge and arcing on medium/high voltage transformers.
The PB300’s ability to pinpoint ultrasound is very useful when finding compressed air/gas or steam leaks in pipes located on high ceilings. There is no need to get a ladder or scissor lift.
Corona discharge is a major contributor to energy loss and also Radio Frequency Interference
Arcing – indication that a failure has occurred
Tracking – detectable even when infrared cannot
Find leaks from further away and pinpoint to exact source without use of a scissor lift.
Detect leaks and operation from a safe distance.

Dry Roasted Edamame (Salted)
Our salted dry roasted edamame makes a tasty snack. Edamame is a young soy bean picked before it ripens. This gives them the green color. They are highly nutritious and contain a significant amount of protein. These are dry roasted and lightly salted. They make a wonderful snack.
Our Registered Dietitian's Top Pick
Our Registered Dietitian and Health Nut likes dry roasted edamame as a protein packed snack! Each serving has 18 grams of protein plus 4.5 grams of fiber, which makes them delicious and filling. Try mixing dry roasted edamame with your favorite dried fruit for a great sweet and salty combination!
Edamame in Your Diet
If you love the fresh edamame that is served in Japanese restaurants, you'll love this dry roasted edamame snack because you can enjoy it anytime. Due to the roasting process, our edamame have a more intense, distinctive flavor than the fresh soybeans. The nutty taste works well with sweet foods like dried cranberries, and the crunch makes these an interesting addition to salads. Dry roasted edamame is a rich plant-based source of high quality protein, which can help you curb hunger between meals. Edamame is also chock-full of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids and nutrients like manganese and vitamin K to support proper bone health.

Many countries have identified Universal Health Coverage (UHC) as the goal for their health systems, and health financing reforms are at the core of strategies to move in this direction. While there is no one “best” financing strategy that applies in every context, this publication synthesizes both theory and practice into principles that can be used to guide country progress with their financing reforms, while also highlighting pitfalls to avoid on the path to UHC.

*** I started this story before DH came out. For that reason it's AU. However, I've tried to make it as close to the details as possible, so you'll find there are canon details in this story. Thank you all so much for your amazing and encouraging reviews (and your PATIENCE with me!), I appreciate every single one :)
Wow. The writing here is incredible! I love how believable you've made everything and how you've injected your own imagination into this story while, at the same time, maintaining the charm of the canon series. I just went through this non-stop, from the first chapter to this one, and I am completely impressed! I can't wait to read more!

For any animal lover, this book is filled with actual family photos of Sissy, as well as beautiful illustrations by Christine Wald.
