    "The remaining eight institutions will work together in a collaborative manner to thoughtfully and strategically position the Big 12 Conference for continued success, both athletically and academically, long into the future.” So the Big 12 will be 8, not 10? Hmm.. I'm spotting a trend.

    Orlando goes code red: AdventHealth, Central Florida’s largest hospital chain, has once again elevated its emergency status due to rising COVID-19 patients, health care officials announced Monday. The hospitals have been under a green status, or business as normal, for a few months when vaccinations were increasing but on Thursday AdventHealth announced it was elevating its status to “yellow” and now AdventHealth is again upgrading to a level “red.” AdventHealth Orlando Chief Medical Officer Dr. Victor Herrera addressed the change on Monday during a COVID-19 update with Orange County officials. “We are approaching an all-time high, in terms of our inpatient, number of COVID-19 cases, which is a stretch in our capacity,” Herrera said.

    I was just talking about vaccination hesitation with a pharmacist friend of mine. He doesn't think this current event down here will move the needle very much. I disagree. I've always said it takes a certain amount of dead or extremely sick people, before you get some folk's attention. I know we have some breakthrough cases - more than I'm comfortable with - but we still have a lot of unvaccinated people, especially in the rural areas. I think the current COVID fais do-do will bump another 10-15% of the state's population into being vaccinated. Then again, I've been wrong before...

    Police turn away dozens of cars trying to get into Queensland Close to 50 vehicles were stopped from entering Queensland illegally yesterday, police have said. Despite the rules people are still trying to cross from NSW into the state. But police say the number of people trying to get in, numbers are dropping. Police said there were 2600 vehicles stopped along the border with 48 of them refused entry. Four people were put into hotel quarantine. Police have once again pleaded with drivers to have the correct forms when trying to enter the state.

    @horace said in "The Last Jedi": I don't think I've seen any of the movies other than the original three. Prior to having my son I had only seen the first two and had no interest in the others.
