Tulsa Trump rally ‘likely’ source of spike in new COVID-19 cases, health official says
BY SEAN MURPHYASSOCIATED PRESS |JUL 08, 2020 AT 8:47 PMPresident Donald Trump's campaign rally in Tulsa in late June that drew thousands of participants and large protests "likely contributed" to a dramatic surge in new coronavirus cases, Tulsa City-County Health Department Director Dr. Bruce Dart said Wednesday.
(Doug Mills/The New York Times)Trump speaks at a campaign rally in Tulsa, Okla., June 20, 2020. Tulsa health officials say the rally “likely contributed" to the city's new surge in new coronavirus cases....MORETulsa County reported 261 confirmed new cases on Monday, a one-day record high, and another 206 cases on Tuesday. By comparison, during the week before the June 20 Trump rally, there were 76 cases on Monday and 96 on Tuesday
Who could have predicted that?

Hunter's Creek Trail is also pretty close to Elma I believe - a great place to hike with a dog.

Use of the staw-man, which formerly was regarded as a bad logical fallacy, is now the basic premise of every political argument.
Yep. Cancel culture this, cancel culture that, yet nobody is actually cancelled; and the details of the warranted criticism are mostly ignored because we flail and yell CANCEL CULTURE!!

I don't think there is a credible argument that there is a strong wave of support in this country for fundamentally changing our way of life.
We can't even agree to wear masks at the store.

Most people I know in Elma spend most of their time in East Aurora. There's a popular dog park at Knox Farm in EA. I would suggest taking an afternoon to walk to Main Street in EA and check out the shops to see what suits your taste. Blue Eyed Baker and 42 North Brewery are my favorite spots in town there.

"We're" not serious about cancel culture.
"Cancel culture" is a strawman that is used way too often in my opinion.

Not sure cancel culture is the term you are looking for here... What NFL player has been "cancelled" in the past 10 years outside of Kaepernick?
Incognito? (No)
Brees? (No)
IK Punch Thrower? (No)
DeSean Jackson? (No)
Riley Cooper? (No)

Well yeah the brain needs oxygen.
Who needs a doctorate when you have Gary M? NIH is hiring.

Sup fellas. Been a few days. I have a couple of questions.
1. Why does the news always share the amount of people that have/had coronavirus and not tell us how many actually have it today? Those that had it and recovered seem to be living normal lives and seeing friends and family without passing the virus on.
2. If tiny droplets can spread the disease why do we need a giant Q-tip jammed in our brain for testing? Shouldn’t a cheek swab suffice?1. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ has all the info you need including active cases
2. There is an ongoing study to test the efficacy of a cheek swab test. The upper respiratory tract has an abundance of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors so a nasal swab to that upper tract through the nose is assumed to be the most accurate.

Moderna? PFT - if you wanted to make money you would have bought Novavax
Anyone listen to Gary's advice? Novavax (NVAX) is up about a thousand % this year. Maybe he sold and ran away?

At Wegmans do you go with the two tiered short bus carts or the wide open pontoon boat long carts?
Personally am a fan of the two tiered ones.
There is also always a parking spot next to a cart corral.

If America Is So Racist, Why Are There So Many Race Hoaxes?
No. 1: The Duke lacrosse team (2006): Three white members of the Duke University lacrosse team were falsely accused by Crystal Mangum, a black student at North Carolina Central University, with having raped her. The charges were all fabricated, but the American media and Duke University faculty rushed to judgment and devoted months to smearing the three lacrosse players and Duke University itself as racist.
No. 2: UC San Diego library noose (2010): "Student apologizes for noose in UC San Diego library" (Los Angeles Times). A "minority student" was responsible for placing the noose in the university library. Previously, the Associated Press had reported, "Anger boiled over on the University of California San Diego campus today, where students took over the chancellor's office to protest the hanging of a noose in a campus library.
No. 3: Truck at Oakland's Corporation Yard (2014): "A reported 'noose' tied to the back of a city truck in August, which stirred already simmering racial tensions at Oakland's Corporation Yard, was not an intended act of racial harassment, a city-commissioned report has found" (Mercury News).
No. 4: University of Delaware (2015): "'Nooses' Found Hanging on University of Delaware Campus Were Lanterns" (NBC).
University President Nancy Targett had earlier announced, "We are both saddened and disturbed that this deplorable act has taken place on our campus."
No. 5: The LSU noose (2015): It was widely reported that a noose was sighted at Louisiana State University leading to protests against racism there. It was later reported, "LSU said a picture of what appeared to be a noose hanging from a campus tree Thursday was not what it appeared to be" (WBRZ).
No. 6: University at Albany (2016): "A state appeals court has upheld the University at Albany's expulsion of a woman who along with two friends falsely claimed to be the victim of a racially motivated attack on a CDTA bus in January 2016" (Times-Union). The three black women had attacked a white woman and then claimed they had been racially attacked.
No. 7: Bowling Green State University (2016): "Bowling Green police say student lied about politically driven attack" (ABC).
"The day after the 2016 election, Eleesha Long, a student at Bowling Green State University -- about 90 miles west of Oberlin -- said that she was attacked by white Trump supporters, who threw rocks at her. Police concluded that she had fabricated the story" (City Journal).
No. 8: Dreadlock cutting hoax (2019): "A black student at a Christian school in Virginia who accused three white sixth grade boys of cutting her dreadlocks and calling her ugly now says she was lying about the attack" (NBC).
No. 9: Jussie Smollett (2019): In one of the most notorious hoaxes, actor Jussie Smollett claimed he was attacked by white racists in Chicago on a freezing night. The story was a hoax. The "noose" was a rope his two co-conspirators had purchased for staging the "attack."
No. 10: Oakland's Lake Merritt (2020): After the city of Oakland launched a hate crime investigation regarding a noose hanging from park trees, Victor Anari Sengbe, a black man, tweeted: "It's not a noose, this guy climbed the tree and put up the rope for a swing months ago, folks used it to exercise... ITS NOT A NOOSE."
Nevertheless, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf then tweeted, "Intentions do not matter. We will not tolerate symbols of hate in our city. The nooses found at Lake Merritt will be investigated as hate crimes."
No. 11: NASCAR (2020): A "noose" was found in the Talladega, Alabama, racetrack garage assigned to black NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace. FBI investigators determined it to be one of several such ropes placed sometime the year before in Talladega garages as door pulls, long before that garage was ever assigned to Wallace. But Wallace continued to maintain it was, in fact, a noose.
11 hoaxes in 15 years according to this list
.73 hoaxes per year
Time to start an investigation.

Good news. I just threw my mask in the trash. Gotta be like the Don. It’s probably just illegal immigrants who are getting the virus in the south, anyways.
update: mask has been burned. No need for it. We have this under control. It’s going to magically go away.
Masks don't work kind of like your sarcasm doesn't work.
