NFL 2020: How To Watch Seahawks Vs. Eagles On Monday Night Football Without Cable

2021-01-03T11:02:23Z

id="article-body" class="row" section="article-body"> Despite an increasing number of [ COVID-19] outbreaks throughout the league and a handful of teams having their schedule adjusted as a result, the 2020 NFL season still remains doggedly on track, for now. Monday Night Football usually wraps up an NFL week, but Week 12 won't conclude until Tuesday when the Steelers host the Ravens. The two teams were originally scheduled to play on Thanksgiving, but the game was postponed after a coronavirus outbreak on the Ravens. A number of players have tested positive or been placed on the reserve, [ including star quarterback Lamar Jackson]. Tonight, the Seahawks and Eagles meet in Philadelphia on Monday Night Football. The Seahawks can increase their lead in the NFC West with a win. Despite currently sitting three games under .500, the Eagles can leapfrog the Giants to regain the lead in the pathetic NFC East if they can slow down Russell Wilson, DK Metcalf and the high-flying Seahawk offense tonight. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT) on ESPN. Here's how to watch tonight's action, as well as the rest of the NFL season, without cable. Russell Wilson and favorite target DK Metcalf will lead the Seattle Seahawks against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football.

Best Firepits For 2020: Tiki BioLite Solo Stove And More

2021-01-02T07:03:13Z

BrettRhea18196:

id="article-body" class="row" section="article-body"> Times are [/how-to/two-vaccines-for-covid-19-may-be-ready-by-the-end-of-2020-heres-what-to-know/ stressful] and winter is coming. But there are real activities you can do to [/health/im-a-dad-who-skateboards-to-find-some-sanity-under-quarantine/ decompress, some of them surprising]. Taking daily walks is one way. Another is to unwind in front of a crackling campfire. You don't need to hike into the woods to enjoy this cozy orange glow. Nor do you need to build a permanent firepit from heavy materials like stone or brick. Instead, get a firepit that's portable. These products are sold by lots of retailers, including Lowe's, [/tags/amazon/ Amazon] and Home Depot. Plus, many firepit manufacturers sell their wares directly. In the market for a firepit? We're taking a bunch of portable pits for a spin to find out which one is best. Brian Bennett/CNET These transportable fireplaces range widely in price, size and weight. There are inexpensive $60 models and high-performance pits that'll set you back as much as $350. You can even spend $1,500 or more on fancy propane-burning firepits. Some firepits, like the Solo Stove Yukon shown here, are large -- great for gathering around to roast marshmallows. Brian Bennett/CNET In this roundup, we focus on genuine, wood-fueled firepits. You can use them for heat, and also for cooking food, including by grilling. Most importantly, they're a great way to roast marshmallows for tasty s'mores. The models on this list are either bestsellers, highly ranked or worthy challengers from established outdoor brands. We tested them to determine their strengths and weaknesses. If you need help choosing a firepit that matches your needs, you've come to the right place. I'll update this list periodically. [ The best firepit overall] [ Tiki Brand Fire Pit] [ ] Brian Bennett/CNET Our favorite firepit on this list is made by Tiki, a company that began with the familiar Tiki bamboo torch over 60 years ago. Now, Tiki offers a firepit that's large, sturdy, and attractive. Priced almost $300 more than its budget rivals, its performance, ease of use and superior style make this pit worth the investment. The steel and stained-wood pit doesn't just look good. The Tiki Brand [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html kynghidongduong.vn] Fire Pit has a clever airflow system that recycles hot smoke back into the fire chamber. During our testing, it was easy to ignite, firing up in about 5 minutes and fully burning in 15. It also generated far less smoke than the other firepits we tested, especially after its logs caught fully, usually at about the 15-minute mark. Only the Solo Stove Ranger burned wood with less smoke emission, its fuel burning fiercely in 5 minutes. The Tiki Fire Pit's logs burned efficiently as well, lasting for hours. Because of its large (16 inches in diameter) mouth, it's easier to share the fire with multiple people. The Solo Stove Ranger is smaller by comparison, its metal fire ring is 10 inches in diameter. Kids gathering around to roast s'mores need to be careful, though: All surfaces of the Tiki firepit, including its metal lip, are scalding hot after the fire is lit. It also takes time to cool after the flames die down. We do appreciate the Tiki Brand pit's removable ash tray. It makes for [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html tour du lịch hạ long] easy cleanup. The pit puts out a generous amount of heat; while that's perhaps not ideal for hot summer nights, it's excellent when the temperature dips during the fall and winter. Finally, tpping the scales at 45 pounds, this firepit is heavy. Think twice before you position it, and get help when you do. [ $350 at Tiki Brand] [ The best smokeless firepit] [ Solo Stove Yukon] [ ] Brian Bennett/CNET Solo Stove firepits have gained an avid following in recent years, and the company's newest product, the Solo Stove Yukon, is its biggest and best yet. With a top side that measures 27 inches across, and a mouth 23 inches in diameter, the Yukon is large enough to accept full-size firewood logs. Despite the Yukon's wide footprint, its stainless-steel body gives it a sleek appearance. The Yukon shares the same sophisticated airflow system you'll find on other Solo Stove products. According to Solo Stove, these vents help drive a continuous supply of oxygen to its fire. In our experience, the Yukon delivers performance just as good as its smaller cousin, the Solo Stove Ranger, but on a larger scale. The Yukon's fire starts fast: Its logs fully caught in just 5 minutes. Once they caught, they burned for hours. This pit was efficient too, consistently consuming all of our test firewood logs. At the end of the night, there was little solid debris to speak of, merely a few bits of charcoal and ash. It produces a lot less smoke than the other firepits we've tested here, save the Solo Pit Ranger. You can also order the Yukon with a rain cover ($50) and a metal stand ($70) for extra cash or as part of a bundle. Because the pit weighs 38 pounds, we don't recommend moving it often. Also, as with other high-performance firepits, kids (and adults) need to be careful around the Yukon. In addition to the intense heat from the fire itself, the Yukon's steel surface heats to burning temperatures fast. [ $400 at Solo Stove] [ The best portable firepit] [ BioLite FirePit] [ ] David Carnoy/CNET The FirePit, made by Brooklyn, New York-based BioLite, weighs under 20 pounds and is built for portability. Measuring 27 by 13 by 15.8 inches, it's relatively long and narrow. However, it holds a little more wood than you'd think, with room for up to four cordwood logs. You can either use it as a standard firepit or as a backyard grill. In firepit mode, you lower the fuel rack to the bottom of the pit. To grill over hot wood coals, or charcoal briquettes if you prefer, raise the rack to its highest position. BioLite offers a bundle with a grill grate, which sits over everything. The grill lit up fast, in less than 5 minutes, and was fully burning in less than 10. The FirePit has a couple of signature features, one being patented airflow technology. A motorized fan drives air to the fire box. You can also control it using via an iOS or Android app on a phone using Bluetooth. A mesh body lets you see flames through the FirePit from any angle. Battery life for the fan is good, with up to 24 hours at the low setting, 10 hours on medium and 5 hours on high. The airflow technology also helps create an almost smoke-free fire. The FirePit's legs fold up when you want to take the grill on the go, plus the pit comes with a handy rain cover. A removable ash tray makes cleaning up easy. All in all, this is a compelling little firepit for someone who doesn't want (or can't have) a permanent pit always eating up patio space. [ $187 at BioLite] [ The best firepit value] [ Garden Treasures 29.5-inch Wood-Burning Fire Pit] [ ] Brian Bennett/CNET This firepit from Garden Treasures proves you don't need to spend big bucks to enjoy a [http://de.pons.com/übersetzung?q=backyard%20campfire&l=deen&in=&lf=en backyard campfire]. Despite its low price, this pit is nice and wide (29.5 inches in diameter). It also comes with a mesh lid to keep sparks at bay. It lacks an advanced airflow system, however, so fires in this pit generate a lot of smoke. And its steel frame isn't stainless, so leaving the pit out in the elements will invite rust. That said, we were able to get a self-sustaining fire lit in about 5 minutes. Its ignition time is comparable to those of premium firepits such as the Solo Stove Ranger and Tiki Brand Fire Pit. Those products burn their fuel more efficiently, leaving less unconsumed firewood and ash to clean up in the morning. Still, the Garden Treasures pit does get the job done on a tight budget. [ $59 at Lowe's] Others we tested The Pop-Up Fire Pit is very portable but makes a lot of smoke. Brian Bennett/CNET [ ] The most portable firepit in this roundup is the Pop-Up Pit. Its collapsible design lets you assemble it and break it down quickly. It also uses a heat shield so it won't scorch the ground below. The pit offers a large (2-foot-square) burning surface for your fire, too. Since its frame is constructed from stainless steel, the Pop-Up Pit is rust-resistant. However, because the pit is so large and has low walls, it creates a lot of smoke. [ Enlarge Image] Brian Bennett/CNET [ ] Squat, cylindrical, compact and made from stainless steel, the Solo [http://www.britannica.com/search?query=Stove%20Ranger Stove Ranger] appears simple at first glance. Tucked away inside this pit, though, is the same sophisticated airflow system that its larger sibling, the Solo Stove Yukon, has. The system is designed to enable fire in the pit to burn hotter and consume more of its wood fuel. We can confirm that the Ranger delivers on these promises. It starts fast, with its logs aflame in just 5 minutes, and it burns for hours. The fires we started in the Ranger also burned with incredible ferocity. The flames inside the pit focused into an impressive rolling vortex. Despite the conflagration, the Ranger emitted very little smoke. The Ranger does have a few drawbacks. Its compact size means it can't accept standard 15-inch firewood logs. It's also not the best for large groups or families. More than two people roasting marshmallows at once quickly becomes a crowd. The Kingso 22-inch firepit is small and has poor airflow. Brian Bennett/CNET [ ] Though it's a bestseller on Amazon, we don't recommend purchasing the Kingso Outdoor Fire Pit. Its small size (22 inches in diameter) feels cramped. And since airflow throughout the unit is poor, we consistently had difficulty both starting fires and keeping them lit inside this pit. It doesn't come with a protective cover, either. The Hampton Bay Windgate 40-inch Dia Fire Pit is massive and built from heavy steel. Unfortunately, it suffers from poor airflow so its flames often die out. Brian Bennett/CNET [ ] The Hampton Bay Windgate is by far the largest firepit in this group. It has a massive 40-inch-diameter bowl, roomy enough for big groups to gather around. As the pit weighs in at a substantial 60 pounds and is constructed from heavy-duty steel, it takes a lot of effort to set up the pit where you want it. Unfortunately, the Windgate suffers from poor ventilation. As a result, fires we started in the pit consistently died out in 15 to 20 minutes. That makes it difficult to recommend this model. [ Enlarge Image] A good firepit will ignite in minutes and stay lit for hours. Brian Bennett/CNET How we evaluated them To test each firepit, we used the same fuel, [ Simple Simon Premium Hardwood] sourced from a local Lowe's hardware store. For a consistent amount, we selected three split log lengths roughly 15 inches long. We then stacked the logs together so at least some portion of each was touching the others. I used Diamond Strike-A-Fire fires starters to ignite these pits. Brian Bennett/CNET To ignite each pit, we used [ ] fire starters that were available at our neighborhood Kroger supermarket. One of these starter matches should be all that's required to get a firepit's fire burning. We then logged how [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html tour du lịch hạ long] it took to establish a fully sustained fire. A good firepit will fully ignite in five to 10 minutes. A pit with poor airflow and design will take a lot longer, or even flame out after 15 minutes no matter how well you've stacked your wood. Additionally, we made note of how much smoke escaped each pit. Ideally, a firepit will generate a lot of flame and little smoke. A quality firepit will also burn fuel efficiently, leaving little solid material remaining once its fire burns out naturally.

We Took The IPhone 12 Down To 65 Feet Underwater In Lake Tahoe And It Put Up A Good Fight

The iPhone 12's IP68 rating means it can survive up to 19.6 feet (6 meters) of water for 30 minutes. This applies to all four iPhone 12 models: the [/news/apple-review-iphone-12-mini-apples-smallest-flagship-phone-one-handed-users-dream/ iPhone 12 Mini], iPhone 12, [/news/apple-review-iphone-12-and-iphone-12-pro-5g-cameras-slabular-redesign/ iPhone 12 Pro] and [/news/iphone-12-review-pro-max-big-phone-big-battery-big-screen/ iPhone 12 Pro Max]. But we discovered that like its predecessor, Apple's newest [/reviews/iphone-11-2019-battery-deep-fusion-review/ iPhone] can handle a great deal more than that. [/news/apple-iphone-11-and-pro-water-resistant-waterproof-testing-resilts/ Both of the iPhone 11 models] far exceeded the official rating, surviving a 39-foot dive in salt water in Monterey Bay, California. This year we took a brand-new iPhone 12 for a swim in the frigid fresh water of Lake Tahoe, on the other side of the Golden State, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html tour du lịch hạ long] to test it out. Teaming up with [ Mission Robotics], we mounted our iPhone 12 to the company's underwater drone, Theseus. The drone can go as deep as 984 feet (300 meters) underwater, with the pilot able to see the view from Theseus' camera, as well as depth and water temperature metrics from a computer on shore. Watch the video on this page for the full test and to see some amazing underwater footage from the drone.

But for the purposes of our test, we wanted to push it to the limits. For our first dive, we wanted to test the IP68 claim: 19.6 feet (6 meters) of water for 30 minutes. From the shore of Lake Tahoe, we positioned the iPhone on a mount facing the drone's camera with the screen set to stay on, so we could see if anything happened to the iPhone while it was underwater. The iPhone 12 on Theseus. John Kim/CNET The water temperature in Lake Tahoe at this depth was 52 degrees Fahrenheit (11 degrees Celsius). Once the 30 minutes were up, we pulled the phone out of the water and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html kynghidongduong.vn] dried it off with a cloth. Then we tested it out to see if the phone was working. The touchscreen was fine and the volume rocker worked as expected. All three cameras (front, ultrawide and wide) looked clear with no evidence of fogging and the photos looked normal. We recorded a voice memo before dunking the phone and could hear that after the first dive the speaker sounded a little muffled in comparison, but it's hard to tell whether that would've improved after letting it dry out longer. Apple's support page suggests placing the iPhone's base and Lightning connector in front of a fan to help the drying process. We had other ideas, however. Dive 2: The extreme test (65 feet) With the iPhone 12 working as normal, we got the drone ready for its second dive in Lake Tahoe. This time, we wanted to take the phone to more extreme depths. We submerged the phone to 65 feet (20 meters) underwater, more than three times the maximum depth rating. The water temperature at this depth was 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius). With the timer running on the iPhone 12's screen, we could see how much time had elapsed since we submerged the phone. Once it hit 30 minutes, we decided to leave it submerged a little longer, just to see what would happen. We finally pulled the drone out of the water at the 40-minute mark and ran through the same tests once more. John Kim/CNET Surprisingly, everything worked as normal. The screen was responsive, the volume and power buttons worked, and the two cameras were in working order as well. The speaker still sounded muffled when playing back the voice memo, but it was still audible. After wiping down the iPhone 12, we powered it down and let it sit for a few days to let it dry out completely. The final test After letting it dry out for 72 hours, we wanted to do one final test to see if there had been any [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html tour du lịch hạ long][http://scp-knowledge.org/?s=-term%20damage -term damage] as a result of the extreme underwater test. The phone itself was completely dry, but its three lenses -- the ultrawide and wide-angle on the back, as well as the front camera -- had developed some fogging. At this point the battery had also completely drained, so we let the phone juice up for a while via the Lightning port before powering it back on.

Our highly unscientific test would suggest that the iPhone 12 can withstand very deep water and clearly meets the IP68 claim. But, like all electronics, it does have a limit to how much water it can take and you should never intentionally submerge the phone in water (lake or otherwise).

Florida Becomes The Third State To Reach One Million COVID-19 Cases

[/news/florida/index.html Florida] has joined [/news/texas/index.html Texas] and [/news/california/index.html California] as the only states in the Union to surpass 1 million COVID-19 cases, but its Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, continues to resist calls to impose a statewide [/news/coronavirus-lockdowns/index.html lockdown]. DeSantis has gone so far as to mandate that schools be open while mocking those who support a closure of schools as 'flat-earthers.' The Department of Health released new data on Tuesday indicating that the Sunshine State reached the grim milestone. The department said that 8,847 new cases were added to the tally on Tuesday, pushing the total thus far during the pandemic to 1,008,166 cases. As of Tuesday, 18,679 Floridians have died. A health care employee works at a COVID-19 testing site in the Crandon Park section of Miami on Saturday. Florida's Department of Health has reported that the statewide COVID-19 case count has surpassed 1 million Florida joins Texas and California as the only three states in the country to have more than 1 million COVID-19 cases. Nonetheless, Governor Ron DeSantis (above) has said that he will not move to impose a statewide lockdown The latest data indicate a surge in the number of hospitalizations but fewer COVID-19 fatalities Florida officials are also reporting a sharp spike in the number of cases and new tests Despite the surge in COVID-19 cases, it doesn't appear that the state government is intent on imposing any sort of strict lockdown. DeSantis said on Monday that schools will be required to remain open despite the rise in confirmed COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, arguing lockdowns and closures have not worked. The governor also said the state was not considering any further restrictions on businesses that could lead to layoffs or financial loss. DeSantis said countries like Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland all kept children in schools with positive outcomes, and argued that some studies show the virus can spread more when children don't go to school because they socialize off campus. The close ally of President Trump criticized those who are pushing again for closures as cases rise. 'Closing schools due to coronavirus is probably the biggest public health blunder in modern American history,' he said at a news conference. 'People who advocate closing schools for virus mitigation are effectively today's flat-earthers.' Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, also told ABC's This Week on Sunday that the spread of the virus among children 'is not really very big at all' and is now advising to get children back in the classrooms. The governor said schools will continue to offer online classes for families who have chosen not to physically return, but school districts will require students who have fallen behind in the virtual mode to go back in person. 'The virtual learning is not the same as being in person,' DeSantis said. The governor acknowledged the rise in cases, but said a surge in other states is more concerning. He also compared the current COVID-19 hospitalizations at 4,100 to about 10,000 reported in the summer. 'We've seen cases increase but look at all the other states that are seeing them increase way, way more,' DeSantis said. 'If you look at the per-capita hospitalizations, we are not even close to the top of the stuff. So I think people should put it in perspective.' Last week, DeSantis extended an executive order banning local governments from issuing fines against citizens who do not comply with social distancing and mitigation measures like wearing masks. Daniella Levine Cava, the new mayor of Miami-Dade, announced on Tuesday she has tested positive for COVID-19 'I'm opposed to mandates period. I don't think they work,' the governor said. 'People in Florida wear (masks) when they go out. They don't have to be strung up by a bayonet to do it.' The new mayor of Florida's most populous county blasted DeSantis for extending the order. 'Bipartisan governors nationwide are putting mask orders in place as one of the best tools we have to fight #COVID19,' Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava tweeted. 'It's deeply frustrating that @GovRonDeSantis continues to block local actions and make it harder for local leaders to keep our communities safe.' Levine Cava also announced that she had tested positive for COVID-19. She said her husband, Dr. Robert Cava, was exposed to COVID-19 by a patient last Wednesday. He has also tested positive. 'Rob and I are quarantining at home,' Levine Cava wrote. 'We both remain in good spirits and have only mild symptoms.' Spokeswoman Rachel Johnson told the Miami Herald that Levine Cava has not been in contact with county employees since Wednesday and plans to participate in Tuesday's county commission meeting by phone. Levine Cava, 65, assumed office on November 17 after being elected earlier in the month. The Democrat had previously served as a county commissioner since 2014. Levine Cava's predecessor, Congressman-elect Carlos Gimenez, tested positive for coronavirus last week. The Republican is set to assume his new office on January 3. People wait in line to be tested for COVID-19 in Miami Beach, Florida, on Tuesday People walk to the Design Miami exhibit in the Moore Building as part of Miami Art Week on Saturday. DeSantis has ruled out state-mandated closures on businesses California is at tipping point: Gov. Gavin Newsom says a second lockdown is likely and warns the state will run out of ICU beds before Christmas after hospitalizations increased by 89% in two weeks DeSantis might have a point. California Governor Gavin Newsom warned on Tuesday that a staggering rise in coronavirus cases could overwhelm the state's health system within weeks and 'drastic' action such as a widespread stay-at-home order may be needed to combat the threat. Hospitalizations from COVID-19 have increased nearly 90 per cent and could triple by Christmas, officials said Monday. 'The red flags are flying in terms of the trajectory in our projections of growth,' Newsom said. The number of COVID-19 cases reported each day in California has been setting records, with the average daily case rate over the last week topping 14,000. California Governor Gavin Newsom (pictured) said he may impose tougher restrictions over the next two days, including a possible stay-at-home order, to counter surging COVID-19 hospitalizations that threaten to overwhelm intensive care units before Christmas Eve 'California's #COVID19 hospitalizations have increased by 89% in the last two weeks,' Newsom tweeted on Monday. 'If these trends continue, our current hospitalizations could increase by 2-3 times within ONE MONTH' Tents are shown outside of a University of California at San Francisco medical center in San Francisco on Monday The levels are far above those recorded during a summer peak or even in March, when a state public health order restricted people from going outside except for the most essential reasons. That order was later eased. Currently, 51 of 58 counties are in the 'purple' tier of the state's COVID-19 system, meaning they are under the strictest business restrictions. Those counties account for most of the state's population. A recently imposed curfew in those counties bars most nonessential work, movement and gatherings but only overnight. Although he supplied few details, Newsom said that unless the current trends slow, the surge in COVID-19 cases creates the potential for an order that could place further restrictions on businesses and keep the majority of people indoors in the most seriously-affected counties. Hospitalizations in California have increased 89 per cent over the past 14 days and nearly 7,800 coronavirus patients were hospitalized as of Monday. Public health officials warned that people ignoring distance and mask guidelines and gathering for Thanksgiving with non-household relatives could lead to a massive surge in coronavirus cases by Christmas. California has had nearly 1.2 million confirmed cases since the pandemic began, with 19,121 virus-related deaths About 12 per cent of Californians testing positive are likely to need hospital care within the next two to three weeks. The biggest concern is intensive care cases, which have increased 67 per cent in the past two weeks. The state has around 7,700 ICU beds, and currently 75 per cent are occupied. More than 1,800 ICU patients have COVID-19. If the trend continues, ICU beds would reach 112 per cent of capacity by mid-December. 'It's brutal. It's astoundingly bad. ... They're seriously, seriously bad numbers,' Dr. George Rutherford, epidemiologist and infectious-diseases control expert at UC San Francisco, told the Los Angeles Times. California can't even ship patients to ICU beds out of state 'because stuff that's just as bad is going on in Oregon and Nevada and Arizona,' Rutherford said. 'We are here on our own, and this is a natural disaster.' Los Angeles County, the nation's most populous and home to 10 million residents, already [http://www.paramuspost.com/search.php?query=imposed&type=all&mode=search&results=25 imposed] its own stay-home order that took effect Monday. The state reported 7,415 coronavirus hospitalizations on Sunday, citing the most recently available data from the previous day. More than 1,700 of those patients are in intensive care units The number of hospitalizations broke the state's previous record of 7,170 in July. The figures are expected to rise in the coming days as similar trends happen nationally Gov Newsom threatened another stay-at-home order, which would seriously impact restaurants and bars (Eat at Joes diner in Redondo Beach, California) Visitors to Old Pasadena dine outdoors along Colorado Boulevard on Sunday.

Santa Clara County is requiring anyone traveling there from more than 150 miles away to quarantine for 14 days. The county is the largest in the San Francisco Bay Area with about 2 million people, and COVID-19 hospitalizations there have soared to levels not seen since the beginning of the pandemic. Meanwhile, California on Monday announced help for small businesses suffering financially because of COVID-19 restrictions and lower sales. With more shutdowns on the horizon and no imminent help from Congress, Newsom and state legislative leaders announced several steps aimed at helping small business owners survive until the federal and state governments can act more broadly early next year. They include an automatic three-month extension for those reporting less than $1million in sales tax; interest-free payments for companies with up to $5million in sales tax; and $500million in grants of up to $25,000 each available to small businesses. El Paso mayor says coronavirus surge is due to 'COVID fatigue' and contact tracers found 55% of cases in one week came from shopping at big box stores The Mayor of El Paso, [/news/texas/index.html Texas], which is reeling from a staggering surge in [/news/coronavirus/index.html coronavirus] cases, says 'COVID fatigue' and shopping at large retailers are to blame for the spike. El Paso's hospitals have become overwhelmed with a troubling increase in coronavirus patients and deaths, prompting the city to bring in at least 10 mobile morgues earlier this month, pay inmates $2 an hour to carry dead bodies away, and deploy the Texas National Guard to help. 'About almost six weeks ago, we started spiking significantly. I think people just… the consensus is people just had COVID fatigue and they let down,' Mayor Dee Margo said on CBS'[ ] on Sunday. Mayor Dee Margo of El Paso, Texas says his city's surge in coronavirus cases is due to 'COVID fatigue'.

El Paso has recorded more than 86,000 COVID-19 cases and more than 920 deaths with a seven day rolling average positivity rate of 13.59 percent. On Monday 461 new COVID-19 cases were reported and one new death. There are 905 people currently hospitalized with 317 patients in the ICU and 214 patients on ventilators. In Texas, more than one million people have tested positive for the virus and more than 21,000 have died. Margo revealed that contact tracers have connected a wave of positive infections from big box stores. 'We did a deep dive in our contact tracing for the week of November the 10th through the 16th and found that 55 percent of the positives were coming from shopping at large retailers, what we'd term as the big box stores,' Margo said.

The mobile morgues were brought in to help with the surge of coronavirus deaths in the state As a result Margo said he asked big stores like Walmart to enact 'voluntary limitations' to lower occupancy in the stores. Nearly one month ago the El Paso area reached capacity at hospitals and additional medics and the National Guard was deployed to aid in the situation. Today is still under a strain. 'Right now in the hospital — the latest numbers I have on our hospitalization is we are at 79 percent of our hospitalization capacity, which gives us 21 percent excess of which we didn't have - we haven't had in some time,' he said. He said that the crisis seems like it's started to plateau, but infections are started to impact an older age group. 'We also dug up the fact that previously - over 52 percent of our positives were coming in the ages of 20 to 39. Now it's 30 to 50.

Leaders pay tribute to Fidel Castro, but critics scathing of 'tyrant' By [/home/search.html?s=&authornamef=Reuters Reuters] Published: 01:29 GMT, 27 November 2016 | Updated: 01:29 GMT, 27 November 2016 [ ] [ ] [ ] </a> Nov 26 (Reuters) - World leaders paid tribute on Saturday to Fidel Castro, the Cuban revolutionary leader who built a communist state on the doorstep of the United States, but in death just as in life he divided opinion, and critics labeled him a "tyrant". Castro died on Friday aged 90, his younger brother and successor Raul Castro announced on state television. U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: U.S. President Barack Obama offered his condolences to Fidel Castro's family and added that history would judge Castro's impact on Cuba and around the world. "At this time of Fidel Castro's passing, we extend a hand of friendship to the Cuban people," Obama said. "History will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him." Obama added that during his own presidency he had worked to "put the past behind us," while working on a future that was built on those things that were in common. RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN: "The free and independent Cuba, built by him and his comrades, has become an influential member of international society and served as an inspiring example for many countries and people. Fidel Castro was a frank and tried and true friend of Russia. He has make a great contribution into establishing and developing of Russo-Cuban ties, close strategic cooperation in all the spheres," the Kremlin said, citing Putin's condolences telegram to Raul Castro. U.S. PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP President-elect Donald Trump said in a statement that: "Today, the world marks the passing of a brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades. Fidel Castro's legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights. While Cuba remains a totalitarian island, it is my hope that today marks a move away from the horrors endured for too long, and toward a future in which the wonderful Cuban people finally live in the freedom they so richly deserve." U.S. VICE PRESIDENT-ELECT MIKE PENCE: U.S. Vice President-elect Mike Pence said on Twitter that: "The tyrant Castro is dead. New hope dawns. We will stand with the oppressed Cuban people for a free and democratic Cuba. Viva Cuba Libre!" CHINA PRESIDENT XI JINPING: Chinese President Xi Jinping said in a statement that: "The Chinese people have lost a close comrade and a sincere friend". Xi hailed Castro for [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-du-lich-vinh-ha-long-ha-noi-gia-re-nhat-dich-vu-tot-nhat.html tour hạ long] his contribution to the development of communism both in Cuba and around the world. FRENCH PRESIDENT FRANCOIS HOLLANDE: French President Francois Hollande mourned the loss of a major figure on the world stage and welcomed the rapprochement between Havana and Washington, while noting concerns over human rights under the Castro regime. "Fidel Castro was a towering figure of the 20th century. He incarnated the Cuban revolution, in both its hopes and subsequent disillusionments," Hollande said in a statement. "France, which condemned human rights abuses in Cuba, had equally challenged the U.S. embargo on Cuba, and France was glad to see the two countries re-establish dialogue and open ties between themselves," added the Socialist party leader. Hollande met Castro in Ma, 2015 during the first ever visit by a French head of state to Cuba since the Cuban revolution. UK FOREIGN MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON: "The UK expresses its condolences to the government and people of Cuba, and to the former President's family.
