Not Your Pre-Pandemic Las Vegas A decade ago, after a rained-out Thanksgiving desert camping trip with our five kids, my wife, Kristin, and I headed to the nearest available lodging, the now-shuttered Hard Rock Casino in Las Vegas. Watching our brood eat their Thanksgiving meal as cigarette smoke and slot-machine clamor wafted over their cheeseburgers, Kristin and I locked eyes with an unspoken message: We are the world’s worst parents. We have avoided Las Vegas with the kids since then, but an aborted drive to slushy Aspen this April with three of our heirs caused us to pause in Vegas. At the time, the city was just awakening from its Covid slumber, with mandatory masks and limited capacity in most indoor spaces, traffic so light that cars were drag-racing down the normally packed Strip, and a lingering, troubling question over the whole place: Will this reopening really be safe? But extraordinary things have been happening during this slumber, and while we were only going to spend one night there, we had so much fun that we ended up staying four. At first we spent most of our time in the relative safety of the outdoors, but then we started to relax along with the rest of the city, drowning our hands beneath the ubiquitous liquid sanitizer dispensers, masking up and heading indoors. I knew things had shifted in Sin City when, while maneuvering the minivan through some seemingly dicey neighborhood between Downtown and the Strip, I noted on the back alley wall of a hair salon a striking mural depicting the cult outsider artist Henry Darger’s seven Vivian Girl warriors in their trademark yellow dresses. What were the Vivian Girls doing here? Farther along, Vegas’s ghost-town adult stores, shuttered warehouses and other buildings were also sporting increasingly elaborate murals: a blood-squirting horned lizard spanning half a city block; a dog with an impressively slobbering tongue piloting an open cockpit plane; a colorful phoenix and dragon rising like fireworks from an empty parking lot — all producing collective surprised “Wows!” from inside our minivan. Las Vegas, it seems, is emerging from the Covid crisis as a place of spectacle and creativity, especially outside the air-conditioned gambling ghettos of the Strip. Over the next four days we did a lot of walking, crawling, flying and even railroading, all of it away from the casinos. We explored the Arts District, an area that has gone into hyper drive — so much so that we waited 30 minutes to get into my once “secret” Colombian breakfast joint, Makers & Finders — and wandered along Spring Mountain Road, the hub of the city’s Chinatown, rapidly expanding westward. In the midcentury mecca of East Fremont Street, a $350 million investment by the tech titan Tony Hsieh, who died last year, has produced a boulevard of fantastical art installations, restored buildings and a sculptural playground surrounded by stacked shipping containers converted to boutiques and cafes, all guarded by a giant, fire-spewing, steel praying mantis. “Vegas is going through a cultural renaissance,” a former member of the city’s Arts Commission, Brian “Paco” Alvarez, told me in a recent telephone interview. “A lot of the local culture that comes out of a city with two million unusually creative people didn’t stop during the pandemic.” A mysterious, windowless building The most striking newcomer is Area15, which opened in February in a mysterious, airport-hanger-size, windowless building two miles west of the Strip. Imagine an urban Burning Man mall (indeed, many of the sculptures and installations came from the annual arts festival held in northern Nevada), with some dozen tenants providing everything from virtual reality trips to nonvirtual ax throwing, accompanied by Day-Glo color schemes, electronic music, giant interactive art installations and guests flying overhead on seats attached to ceiling rails. Face masks are currently only mandatory in Area15 for self-identified unvaccinated people, though some of the attractions within still require face masks for everyone. Everywhere, we encountered the constant presence of cleaning attendants spraying and wiping surfaces. On the second floor of Area15’s art riot I met an old acquaintance from New York, Chris Wink, one of the co-founders of the joyously weird Blue Man Group, who was bringing his creative magic to Area15 in the form of a “Psychedelic Art House Meets Carnival Funhouse” called Wink World (adult tickets start at $18). Wink World is centered around six rooms with infinity mirror boxes reflecting Slinkys, plasma balls, fan spinners, Hoberman Spheres and ribbons dancing to an ethereal soundtrack of electronic music, rhythmic chanting and heavy breathing. “I worked on these installations for six years in my living room in New York,” Mr. Wink told me. “I was trying to evoke psychedelic experiences without medicine.” My unmedicated children were transfixed, as if these familiar toys frolicking into eternity were totems to their own personal nirvanas. I’ve never seen them stand so still in front of an art exhibit. Lava-filled caves and artificial lawns Omega Mart (adult admissions start at $45, face mask and temperature check mandatory), the biggest attraction in the complex, lines one side of the complex’s atrium and seemed — at first — to provide a banal respite from Area15’s sensory overload. Along the sale aisles I found Nut Free Salted Peanuts, Gut Monkey Ginger Ale and cans of Camels Implied Chicken Sop. My kids, good campers, immediately ducked into a small demonstration tent erected in the back of the store. They never came out again. A hidden entry brought them through the wall and into a world of artificial lawns, lava-filled caves, drab offices, a desert canyon, locker rooms, a secret bar and other divergent spaces often linked by hidden entrances. “Pull every knob and open every closet you see, Dad,” my daughter, Vivian, breathlessly advised as she whizzed by me for the fourth time in this 52,000-square-foot maze. Created by the renowned Santa Fe artist collective Meow Wolf (the name derived from pulling two random words from a hat during their first meeting), Omega Mart is an amalgamation of some 325 artists’ creations tied together by disparate overlapping story lines which one can follow — or not. For a short time, I tracked the story of the takeover of Omega Mart’s corporate headquarters by a hilariously manipulative New Agey daughter, and then got sidelined into the tale of a teen herbalist leading a rebellion to something else. I have no idea what I experienced other than that Brian Eno composed the music to one of the installations. None of my kids could explain what they experienced either, other than something mind-expanding. If it wasn’t for dinner, we might still be in there. Feasting in Chinatown Dinner! The choices are dizzying and there are now 10 Michelin-starred restaurants in the city. We weren’t going to any of them. Leaving Area15, even the distant lights of the Strip seemed relatively calming. But we were driving the opposite direction, to Chinatown. A decade ago, Chinatown was mainly a small enclave of restaurants and shops behind an ornate red gate overlooking a strip mall called Chinatown Plaza, catering to Vegas’s growing wave of Asian immigrants. Chinatown has now expanded to the far reaches of Spring Mountain Road, a desert Hong Kong of neon signs in Mandarin, Japanese, Vietnamese and Korean, advertising restaurants, coffee houses, foot-massage salons and lots of stuff I couldn’t read. Our goal was an unlikely corner of a strip mall, where hides, in the Jones family’s collective opinion, the best Japanese restaurant in North America, Raku. Step behind an understated white backlit sign and you enter an aged wood interior of an intimate restaurant that you might find off a Kyoto alley. We slid into the family-style tables behind the main dining room and commenced to feast. There’s a $100 tasting menu if you are feeling adult, but my tribe ordered cream-like tofu with dried fish, foie gras skewers and a dozen other items. Chinatown became our go-to-spot for snacks and boba tea between adventures. A favorite spot became Pho 90, a low-key Vietnamese cafe with outstanding noodle dishes and exquisitely layered banh mi sandwiches for picnics in the wild. Beyond the city Las Vegas’s expanding grid abruptly surrenders to the desert, which might be the most overlooked part of Vegas family vacations. Red Rock Canyon, 17 miles west of the Strip, is like walking into a Road Runner cartoon with a Technicolor ballet of clashing tectonic formations. We grabbed our admittedly reluctant brood on a 2.4-mile, round-trip hike on the Keystone Thrust Trail through a series of gullies until we emerged above epic white limestone cliffs jutting through the ocher-colored mountains. Here we had our Vietnamese picnic overlooking the monolithic casinos in the distance. Our last night’s excursion into nature didn’t take any persuasion: Half an hour’s drive south to Boulder City, a company called Rail Explorers has set up rail bike tours on the abandoned tracks leading to the Hoover Dam construction site. We booked a sunset tour (from $85 to $150 for a tandem quad bike). After some quick instruction, we, along with three dozen other visitors, climbed into an 800-pound, four-person Korean-made bike rig and, giving the group ahead of us a three-minute head start for some space, started peddling. Our route was along four miles of desert track gently sloping into a narrowing canyon pass. As we effortlessly peddled at 10 miles per hour, we noticed that the spikes holding down the railroad ties were often crooked or missing. “I bet these were all driven in by hand,” my teenage son, Cody, a history buff, noted. In the enveloping dusk, we glimpsed shadows moving along the sagebrush: bighorn sheep, goats and other critters emerging for their nocturnal wanderings. But the most surreal sight was at the end of the ride, where a giant backlit sign for a truck stop casino appeared over a desert butte — Vegas was beckoning us back, but now we welcomed the summons. Here we were, peddling into the sunset, feeling more athletic, cool and (gasp!) enlightened than when we first rolled into Vegas four days ago. Oh what good parents we were! “The moniker of ‘Sin City’ is totally wrong,” Mr. Alvarez told me, “if you know where to look.” Source link Orbem News #Las #prepandemic #Vegas

Ramadan’s Success Story Visible in Makkah’s Grand Mosque

Each year, millions of worshippers travel to Saudi Arabia to pray at the Two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madinah. (AFP)

— Arab News | May 12, 2021

Authority tasked with keeping pilgrims safe in holy sites offers glimpse behind the scenes

MAKKAH, Saudi Arabia: Each year, millions of worshippers travel to Saudi Arabia to pray at the Two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madinah. Keeping these vast crowds safe and provided for is a gargantuan task at the best of times, but the pandemic has added many more layers of preparation.

Saudi Arabia banned international visitors from making the Islamic pilgrimage, or Hajj, in 2020, in a bid to control the coronavirus pandemic. Only a very limited number of people residing in the Kingdom were permitted to take part.

Now that flights have resumed and the Kingdom’s borders have reopened, worshippers are permitted to enter — provided they abide by a strict set of protocols.

The General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques, which is overseeing these protocols, works year-round to improve the experience for visitors and staff.

Hani Haider, the presidency spokesperson, said in a recent statement that “immunization is an essential condition for performing Umrah and praying in the Two Holy Mosques.

“It is the first condition for applicants requesting permits to pray, perform Umrah or visit the Grand Mosque in Makkah. The permits are issued through the Eatmarna app or the Tawakkalna app. Entering the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah requires the Tawakkalna app.

“This applies to immunized people that have received their first dose of the vaccine no less than 14 days prior to their visit, and to people that have completely recovered from a coronavirus infection.

“Three tracks have been designated to the elderly and people with special needs near the holy Kaaba, while six entry points have been dedicated to pilgrims that are being allowed to the Mataf dish as batches through 14 virtual tracks,” he added.

Haider called on pilgrims to follow these tracks in order to ensure the smooth flow of movement, in addition to abiding by the preventive measures put in place to preserve everyone’s safety.

Many of these measures are carefully managed by the presidency’s Technical and Service Affairs Agency. Its staff distribute single-use Zamzam water bottles in the Mataf dish and squares.

They also oversee transport inside the Grand Mosque, organize the entry and exit of visitors, assist people with special needs, and supervise the equipping, disinfecting and perfuming process.

The agency coordinates the movement of pilgrims inside the Grand Mosque and its squares with a crew of observers to ensure COVID-19 containment measures are respected.

Its staff of 4,000 cleaners disinfect and perfume the Grand Mosque 10 times a day, using more than 60,000 liters of disinfectant and 1,200 liters of air freshener.

More than 70 field teams have also been formed to disinfect the Grand Mosque, its outer squares and bathrooms using carefully selected eco-friendly materials to ensure the safety of visitors.

More than 500 automatic hand sanitizing machines equipped with sensors have been distributed throughout the mosque as part of health precautions.

Meanwhile, the Transport Services Department has raised its readiness to serve visitors to the Grand Mosque by preparing more than 5,000 regular vehicles and 3,000 electric vehicles.

Stickers stressing the importance of social distancing can be found at distribution points, while other signs can found on vehicles to confirm they are disinfected before and after use.

The agency has also recruited more than 100 observers and deployed them at the Grand Mosque’s doors to welcome pilgrims, and guide them to their designated areas.

Authorities have allocated 10 doors for pilgrims, including the King Fahd Gate, Ajyad Gate, Safa Gate, Gate of the Prophet, Bani Shaybah Gate, Al-Marwah Gate, Al-Arqam Gate and Al-Marwah Bridge.

Security personnel are on hand to guide worshippers in case prayer areas become overcrowded.

One of the agency’s most important tasks is monitoring the operational status of all 200 escalators and 14 elevators, overseen by more than 90 Saudi engineers and technicians.

They are also in charge of checking the sound system, which is made up of almost 8,000 speakers, nine microphones for the imam and six microphones for the muezzin.

Additionally, the agency is in charge of conditioning the air in the Grand Mosque’s squares through water-spraying technology, absorbing the thermal energy from the outside air and lowering its temperature.

There are almost 250 spray fans spread across the squares of the Grand Mosque, which are used during prayer times when the Grand Mosque’s squares are full and the temperature is high.

“The state has mobilized all of its human and material capabilities on various aspects, including engineering, technical and services, to ensure the pilgrims’ comfort,” Kamelia bint Mohammed Al-Daadi, assistant secretary for women’s services and administrative affairs, told Arab News.

Her department has launched four initiatives to help improve security and comfort for female visitors.

The first is dubbed “Safe Sanctuary,” which focuses on managing the squares and transport services dedicated to women, providing name-tagged scarves, and raising awareness about preventive measures through a barcode system that displays incorrect behaviors.

Next is “Good Hospitality,” which manages the doors dedicated to women, welcomes pilgrims, guides them, and provides them with services in numerous languages.

The third initiative is centered on cleanliness, focusing on the disinfection of carpets in the Grand Mosque so that female pilgrims can safely and hygienically break their fast and perform Tarawih prayers.

The initiative’s logo is printed on all sanitized equipment and staff have all been trained to operate disinfection machines, and to distribute disinfectants and cleaning tools in female facilities.

Finally, the department’s Women Suqya Zamzam Unit is responsible for distributing water from the Zamzam well in sanitary containers to female pilgrims.

The General Department for Administrative, Planning, Institutional Excellence and Technology has also launched four initiatives to prepare its staff. The first, dubbed “Digital Flashes,” is overseen by the Technology and Electronic Services Unit.

“It consists of preparing and designing educational publications to promote knowledge and develop digital skills, and publishing them through various social media platforms on a daily basis during the holy month of Ramadan,” Al-Daadi said.

Another initiative called “Proficiency” is carried out by the Planning, Institutional Excellence and Quality Unit, and is designed to actively spread the message and vision of the Two Holy Mosques, and hold educational workshops.

The third, named “Rehabilitation,” is carried out by the Services of Temporary Female Workers Unit to provide temporary female staff with a rehabilitation program before the Hajj season begins and to celebrate World Manager’s Day.

“Lastly, the fourth initiative is ‘Enrichment,’ which is carried out by the Women Training Academy,” Al-Daadi said.

“It consists of organizing an awareness-raising forum that builds bridges between the female employees of the Grand Mosque and female pilgrims in order to raise the level of readiness.”

Nothing new yet

I just finished another 4 day trip and things are about the same for the last three weeks. Fortunately, for SkyWest airlines, they haven’t announced any furloughs yet for their pilots and flight attendants and I’m optimistic that we’ll be able to get through this without any furloughs.

Since there isn’t anything too new from my last post from last week to today, I thought I would talk about the process of cleaning the airplanes in between each flight. This last week, I had two or three flights a day for 4 days in a row I was in and out of Ontario, California, Tucson, Arizona, and Helena, Montana. Normally, we can do 30 minute turns, meaning we can deplane and re-board and leave the gate in 30 minutes. Because of the coronavirus, the airlines have been scheduling about 1 hour in between each flight and that is to clean the plane. In between flights, a hand full of cleaners will board the plane, with masks, and put down each arm rest and tray table from every seat. One person then fogs the plane. This is a little hand held machine that sprays out disinfected cleaning chemical (looks like fog coming out of a smaller leaf blower type machine) and sprays down every seat, arm rest, and tray table. The other cleaners then go behind him and wipe it all down and dry everything and then return the tray tables to the original position. Someone then cleans all of the overhead bins and handles. Then one last person has a little vacuum and vacuums the floor and the foot end of each seat (that’s a normal thing that cleaners would do before coronavirus anyways). And that is how our planes have been getting cleaned before each flight.

I honestly feel safer in the plane than I do in Walmart, or home depot. Each passenger is required to wear a mask and each person is given a hand sanitizer wipe as they enter the plane. They can wipe down their seat or arm rest/tray table, or even their hands if they would like. I feel like most people are okay with how the airlines are treating this coronavirus, but, once again, nothing is open so no one really has a reason to travel. Or else travelling would be better than what it already is.

Hopefully, we continue to see an increase in passenger numbers. I start another 4 day trip this Tuesday that also goes to Tucson, Ontario, and Helena. Hopefully everyone is safe and continues to wear a mask in public!

Flying from Salt lake City to Tucson, Arizona. This is passing directly over the Grand Canyon. Delta flight 3676 operated by SkyWest airlines on 8/7/2020

Safety protocol finalised for JEE & NEET aspirants Subscribe - https://ift.tt/2BvgxbE Facebook - https://ift.tt/3hRxoWV Twitter - https://twitter.com/EducationCaree6 Pinterest - https://ift.tt/2YpDlCG Tumblr - https://ift.tt/2NmT92U Blog - https://ift.tt/2NhbzC6 #Exam #Recruitment #Result #School #College #Study #NEP #New_Education_Policy #Admission NEW DELHI: Contact-less frisking, staggered time-slots for reporting and contact-less verification of documents like admit cards will be part of the safety protocol for engineering and medical admission tests — JEE (Main) and NEET — to be held by the National Testing Agency between September 1-13 for nearly 25 lakh aspirants. Candidates will be required to carry a self-declaration regarding their Covid-free health status on the day of the test and those with body temperature higher than the recommended will be allowed to take the test in isolated rooms. As per the standard operating procedures finalised by NTA and a copy of which has been accessed by TOI, threetier measures are being put in place — pre-examination, conduct of exam and post exam phases. As part of pre-exam measures, all centres would keep gloves, masks, hand sanitisers, sponges/ cloth, disinfectant liquid with 1% sodium hypochlorite, disinfectant backpack spray machines for sanitising floors and walls, thermo guns and individual water bottles for staff and candidates. All floors, walls and gates of the exam centre will be sanitised with disinfectants before the exam starts and those on exam duty will wear masks and gloves after staff verification. At the entry, body temperature of the candidates will be recorded and if it is found to be more than 99.4°Fahrenheit, the candidate will be taken to an isolation room. The process of frisking and document verification for such candidates will be done after 15 to 20 minutes. Candidates will be allowed in batches of 15 girls and 15 boys in two different registration rooms. Inside the exam hall, candidates will be allowed to carry face mask, gloves, a personal transparent water bottle, a small hand sanitiser and documents like admit card and identity card. For management of candidates’ entry, at the entry of the registration room the body temperature will be recorded and if it is less than 99.4 degree Fahrenheit their move for frisking. Otherwise they will be taken to an isolation room. The process of frisking and document verification will be done after 15 to 20 minutes. By this time if the temperature doesn’t decrease, they will be allowed to take the exam alone in a separate room. Candidates will be ushered in batches of 15 girls and 15 boys in two different registration rooms. Inside the exam hall the candidates are allowed to carry a mask on face, gloves on hand, a personal transparent water bottle, a small hand sanitizer and exam related documents like admit card and identity card. For document verification a table of approximately 3 feet width will be kept and the candidate will display the documents for exam functionary to view without touching. For the computer-based JEE (main) “Odd seat numbers will be allocated in shift 1 and shift 3, and even seat numbers in the shift 2 and shift 4,” which will result in 50% utilization of venue capacity. Also there will be barcode readers at the entry point to scan the admit card to verify the candidate details without physically touching his documents.

Wine Harvest Is Happening in the Southern Hemisphere — Producers From 5 Countries Weigh In

Covid-19 is having a major and possibly devastating effect on the wine industry as a whole — tasting rooms across the globe are closed and many depend on visitation for sales — but it’s been especially difficult for wineries in the Southern Hemisphere, which also happen to be in the throes of wine’s most demanding season: harvest.

Winery operations in locked-down areas have been defined as essential, and thus the harvests throughout South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, and South America have been allowed to press on, although it’s far from business as usual. The pandemic is presenting unprecedented challenges during the busiest time of year as many wineries are forced to speed up their production despite a skeleton staff and a laundry list of safety protocols that effectively slows down their progress.

“All harvests are stressful,” said Paula Borgo, head winemaker at Bodega Séptima in Mendoza, Argentina. “We risk the year in a couple of months, but adding Covid-19 is one of the biggest challenges that life has put me in. I have 25 harvests carried out and I had never had to decide also on the health of the workers.”

A RUSH TO CRUSH

Time was on the side of many wineries in some Southern Hemisphere regions, like South Africa, which managed to harvest and crush most of their fruit before a lockdown was put in place. “We were very grateful to have all our grapes harvested and in our cellar,” says Corlea Fourie, vineyard and wine manager of Bosman Family Vineyards in Wellington, South Africa. Fourie added that her team was also able to get essential topping, barrel filling, and analyses done prior to South Africa’s 21-day lockdown. “We are in a lull as the 2020 harvest will be safe for the next few weeks. It will become problematic if the lockdown is extended as some critical wine actions will then be necessary.”

Several other winemakers acknowledged that, in retrospect, they were gifted with an earlier harvest this year, especially in Chile, where an especially hot and dry growing season resulted in harvest beginning two to four weeks earlier than usual. “What was first perceived as a complicated situation to handle ended up being a huge help in order to finish this harvest as soon as possible,” says Christian Blanc, managing director at Viña Casas del Bosque in Casablanca, Chile. His team is speeding up the process in an effort to get all of their fruit in the winery by Easter, and before the virus reaches its expected peak in Chile. “Because of this reason, the overall volume of fruit will go down, but we will not have any effect on quality,” he says.

Yet in cooler regions with slower ripening, if the grapes aren’t ready, they’ll simply need to stay on the vine. Winemaker Blair Walter at Felton Road in Central Otago, New Zealand, said that recent cooling temperatures after an unexpected early start to harvest have allowed his staff to slow down and make the best of a tough situation. While taking all the necessary social distancing and safety precautions, Walter said the crew is able to have “some longer, more contemplative lunches, and of course, accompanied by some mystery bottles.”

SHORT-HANDED HARVEST CREWS

For wineries that have managed to maintain their full harvest and cellar crews, the challenge is now to keep the number of workers gathered together in one space to a minimum. Some have divided their teams into smaller, rotating shifts, or have opted to machine harvest when they usually hand pick. Across the board, all non-essential and high-risk employees are working from home and most of the foreign harvest interns hired for the season have been sent back early to their respective countries. By creating a safer work environment, the consensus among winemakers seems to be that the days are a bit longer as tasks take more time to complete.

“It has actually been quite enjoyable and relaxed,” says Justin Van Wyk, winemaker at Constantia Glen in Cape Town, South Africa. “We are only harvesting with a skeleton staff that resides on the farm and as a result, we harvest smaller volumes of grapes per day and this makes it a lot more manageable for me in the cellar.”

Cautiously anticipating the worst-case scenario, Blanc, of Viña Casas del Bosque in Chile, says he’s operating with half the usual staff. “As you can imagine, harvest is not something we can stop, so we were forced to take some precautions to ensure our operation. We had to split our team in two different crews,” he says. “The B crew was sent ‘to the bench’ and they are working from home mainly on administrative issues, while the A team is actively working on harvest. The idea behind this is that if someone in the A team gets sick with Covid-19, then the whole A crew will have to go on quarantine and be replaced by the B team. Of course, it’s not very efficient, but there is no other way to ensure harvest.”

Blanc’s nightmare was nearly a reality at Distell in Stellenbosch, South Africa, where several employees had been in contact with an international visitor who got tested for Covid-19. “An international guest on site resulted in the red winemaker, one assistant, and the offloading team landing up in self-isolation until the test [came back] negative,” says Elize Coetzee, cellar master at Distell. “Three days at home during peak harvest, the stress levels were through the roof, but the remainder of the team stepped up and the job got done.”

EMPLOYEE SAFETY IS A TOP PRIORITY

A successful harvest is undoubtedly essential to a winery’s bottom line, but each winery VinePair spoke with insists that its No. 1 priority is the health and safety of its employees. Unfortunately, social distancing doesn’t exactly come easily in wine production. In the vineyard, for instance, workers sidle up next to and across from each other within the narrow rows to pick grapes, usually with just a few feet of distance between them. Then, as those grapes arrive at the winery for processing, there will often be multiple staff members lined up on either side of the sorting table, their hands overlapping as they reach for leaves and undesirable clusters.

But under the dark cloud of Covid-19, wineries have enacted a strict standard of protocols in both the vineyard and the cellar. Employees are instructed to remain six feet apart from one another, wear protective gear like masks and gloves, and wash their hands frequently. Sanitizing stations are set up throughout the winery, worker temperature checks are made upon arrival and departure, and daily safety briefings are conducted at the start of each shift. “Everyone has an individual alcohol spray to clean surfaces, tools, plugs, valves, pumps, and everything they touch,” says Karim Mussi, winemaker of several wineries and brands in Mendoza, Argentina, which include Bodega Altocedro and Bodega Alandes. “Every winery gate or door has a boot cleaning area with a disinfectant solution.”

At Bodega Garzón in Maldonado, Uruguay, managing director Christian Wylie says the company is handling the transportation of employees to and from the winery in order to minimize outside contact. At Bodega Séptima in Argentina, Bogro told VinePair that vineyard employees are now spaced one per row for harvesting. The company has also gone a step further, considering the mental health of its employees by arranging virtual sessions with psychologists for anyone who needs them during these uncertain times.

THE SHOW (ALWAYS) GOES ON

Covid-19 presents new challenges for vintners, but it’s certainly no worse than some of the catastrophes the industry has survived before, from extreme weather events to war to that vine-killing pest phylloxera, which nearly eradicated wine-making grapes in several countries in the 19th century.

“In Argentina, and especially in this business, we are well-trained storm pilots and we know how to manage a crisis,” said Mussi of Bodega Altocedro. “This harvest will prove, one more time, how beautiful and important this activity is, how many jobs it generates, and the strong-minded people needed to continue moving forward. No wars, or crises — and now a pandemic — can stop us.”

As for the quality of the wine, the virus is unlikely to define the 2020 vintage in the way that Mother Nature often does. As Wylie, of Uruguay’s Bodega Garzón, sees it, “We are grateful that, even with disconcerting news circulating, nature continues and the 2020 harvest has been the best we have had to date, with a dry year and cooler-than-usual temperatures yielding off-the-chart quality fruit.”

Usa today A $100K cleaning machine? A 'silver bullet' disinfectant? Businesses cash in on coronavirus panic at US schools.

Usa today

USA TODAY answers a quiz you're going to be wondering: Is coronavirus worse than the flu? USA TODAY

Disinfectant room sprayers. Commercial cleaning companies. On-line finding out programs. Rehydration beverages.

Whereas the unfold of the coronavirus continues to unnerve American citizens, some companies are experiencing a boost in industry – even supposing there isn't any longer any guarantee their products will quit the unfold of the virus.

US colleges' response to the virus: Are they overreacting – or no longer doing sufficient?

Deep cleaning: Florida district spends $45K on disinfectants

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos used to be pressed by an Oregon lawmaker in a listening to Thursday about why the Education Department couldn't better scream colleges when to shut down and how, precisely, the products and services should always peaceable be cleaned.

"We bear had in the closing 5 days a sixfold operate bigger in cases," talked about Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon.

If the rapid bolt of infections continues, he added, "colleges are going to be affected, and they're all going to be asking the same questions, and as well you might almost definitely almost definitely be in a intention to relieve be particular they realize the answers."

DeVos talked about her division is passing along data from the CDC.

Usa today Colleges hit upon a deep perfect amid lethal coronavirus outbreak

The U.S. death toll hit at the least 14 over the weekend – 13 in Washington deliver and one in California – and Colorado, Nevada and Maryland reported their first cases of the virus. There were extra than 370 confirmed cases nationally as of Thursday night.

Most patients who bear died had been aged and had underlying effectively being stipulations. However in a by shock evolving panorama, anxious college leaders and folks bear made every form of reflexive purchases.

Can also impartial peaceable I be afraid? The recent coronavirus might almost definitely change into a virulent disease: What is that?

Amazon used to be sold out of hand sanitizer as of Wednesday. Electrolyte beverage firm SOS – which no longer too lengthy previously focused promoting to guardian-focused net sites about flu- and virus-precipitated dehydration – has considered sales operate bigger 23% in the previous week, a spokeswoman talked about.

She talked about cleaning charges can vary from $500 to $1,500 and up, looking on the dimensions of the power.

The advertising and marketing for some products involves laborious-to-compare claims.

One producer advertised its disinfectant in a news open as "a silver bullet in opposition to human coronavirus, recurring flu and assorted germs." The firm talked about its PURE Arduous Surface product is "powered by patented silver ion-citric acid molecules."

The president of Altapure, a firm in suburban Milwaukee that makes machines that spray a disinfecting fog into rooms, talked about products and services are ethical to prefer in suggestions paying six figures for his product.

"I’m bowled over college methods haven’t taken better steps to give a protected intention of employment, especially when facing germs and bugs that will raze you," talked about Carl L. Ricciardi, president of the firm.

Ricciardi talked about Altapure purchased inquiries from a college district, ambulance firm and a sanatorium on Wednesday – and that used to be magnificent over the lunch hour. The firm sells primarily to hospitals, he talked about.

"The look-reviewed literature reveals the hand strategy of cleaning is suboptimal," Ricciardi talked about. "The gold recurring should always be to spend the abilities that provides you the excellent chance" of doing away with the virus.

Usa today How can folks portray what products work in opposition to COVID-19?

Infectious-illness consultants had been reluctant to weigh in on the effectiveness of distinct products, given the political sensitivity all the procedure in which by means of the global effectively being disaster.

Lawrence Muscarella, president of LFM Healthcare Alternate strategies, an goal effectively being care safety firm, talked about customers should always peaceable ask manufacturers if their products had been proven to raze COVID-19, the recent stress of the virus.

"You'd desire a assign claim from the producer that claims 'Kills COVID-19,'" Muscarella talked about. "If it magnificent says 'kills coronavirus,' ask if that involves COVID-19."

Besides, Muscarella echoed the CDC, stressing that participants should always peaceable follow the cleaning product's directions for use. The company has linked to a list of cleaning products authorised by the Environmental Security Company for use in opposition to COVID-19.

Jonah Berger, a advertising and marketing professor at the College of Pennsylvania and creator of the 2013 book "Contagious: Why Things Rep On," talked about folks potentially are shopping quite about a pointless items.

"Bother and dismay trigger us to get actions, admire sharing news and shopping products, even supposing those actions are no longer ceaselessly well-known," Berger talked about.

"What's subtle in this case is that there is extraordinarily about a political stress on the CDC to either narrate or no longer narrate distinct things. I desire it used to be all magnificent based on science, but it be no longer."

Remember When The Zombie Apocalypse Was, Like, A Huge Deal?

The late Oughts and Early Teenies were wild for zombies, and for me, as for so many others, it began with The Zombie Survival Guide. I’ve always loved survival guides - but this one was special. I first saw it in my cousin’s hallowed bookcase, instantly marking it out as a Cool Book, but it wasn’t until I got down to Waterstones and bought my own copy that I really started to get into it.

Those who know me might realise by now that I have a... survivalist streak. Something about me is just super into bushcraft, wastelands and self-sufficiency, and this pushed ALL those buttons.

So my brother and I pored over it. We learned as much as we could about the enemy. We read reports of the likely impacts of societal collapse brought on by the attack of the living dead, and we made A Plan.

And then, fun thought exercise completed and escapist fantasy concluded, we put The Plan away, and went back to flipping burgers and playing the guitar for about ten years. Last week, though, my wife’s cousin was enthusiastically talking about zombie movies with me, and I got the itch to reread Brooks’ next work - the completely spectacular World War Z. Partway through the read, our plan came flying back into my head in full force. I remembered it, and how stupendously comprehensive it was. What madness had taken hold of these two young parishioners and caused them to plot to turn their school into a self-sufficient apocalypse fortress? I don’t know. What I do know is how to turn St. Colman’s College, Newry, into an island of humanity in the ghoul-infested wastelands.

This was our plan.

The Dead Are Coming

It’s finally happened, just like you feared it would. Out in the sticks, homes are being broken into in the dead of night, blood sprayed up the walls, but no bodies to speak of. It looks as though the murdered families lay dead for a while, then got up and shambled off.

It’s not long before the outbreak becomes obvious, and the panic sets in. The police and military act if they can, but massive amounts of them are likely requisitioned to defend “priority” targets in strategically vital or particularly rich and well-connected areas. That means Newry is shit out of luck.

First things first: prepare to ride out the short-term chaos.

This plan is a long-term one which involves settling in after the complete collapse of society, so we couldn’t have just gone and done it in the early stages of the outbreak, when humanity still had a chance to right the ship. The first stage of the plan involved laying low in the attic of our house for a few weeks, and seeing what happened. Thanks to the fact that we live literally seconds from a huge B&Q, tools and materials are very nearby, and the same retail park contains a lot of food and drinks places, with a supermarket just across the road, so supplies shouldn’t be too hard to supplement there.

Phase One:

The alarms are sounding. People are starting to panic. We send out the signal to our trusted relatives and closest friends that the time has come to implement The Plan, which, for now, means arming up with Dad’s woodcutter’s axe, then off to B&Q to buy enough MDF and nails to cheaply floor the attic. Also to buy or otherwise acquire: axes, sledgehammers, petrol grinder or several large hacksaws with as many spare blades as they’ve got, gallon (or more) water bottles, candles, torches, batteries, enough long life food for several weeks, and a hell of a lot of vegetable seeds. This may break the bank: that was acceptable in our plan. It’s the apocalypse.

Crucially, this must all be in place BEFORE the dead are massing in the streets. By the time that happens, we’d all be in the attic, comfortably lit, with enough food, water and sanitation for several weeks. We’d be being very quiet. There is no way into the attic without a ladder, and with the trapdoor closed, there’s no reason for zombies to attack our house en masse. Random exploratory incursions may still happen, but they almost definitely wouldn’t even realise the attic existed.

This obviously isn’t sustainable, so if, after a month or so, the dead appear to have won or the humans have been unable to recover, then it’s time for:

Phase Two: Long-Term Boogaloo.

It is hard to overstate how massive St. Colman’s is. My brother and I both spent seven years of our lives there, and we know it inside and out. It’s the best location for a long-term fortress that was convenient to us, and boy, was it convenient.

Completely surrounded by an 8-foot tall spike-topped steel slat fence, the grounds are enormous, and the school building itself has more space than hundreds of survivors could need, let alone a few dozen. Newry Canal and the Clanrye River both run only about 6 feet from the fence perimeter all along one side, allowing fresh water, the use of waterwheels for power, and preventing the dead from massing on that side. The gates are at one end of a kilometre-or-so drive, and there’s a back way (with even taller steel gates and fencing) that leads to a fork in the lane: one end going to the canal towpath, and the other conveniently emerging about 40 feet from our front door.

It’s got a large diesel generator, a full gym, a workshop with machining tools, a library, and plenty of food storage. It’s got fields on all sides, and plenty of forest cover. It’s even got a bell tower on high ground out the front. Before we can enjoy all that, though, we would have to capture it.

A scout would sneak down when all looked quiet, and creep into the front garden, then into the branches of the big blue cedar. It’s got an unbroken view of the road, but the watcher is hidden. They’ll watch for a while. If all is clear, they’ll give the signal, and we’ll pick up our bags and sneak down. Darting across the road will be one hard part. If it’s jammed with cars, the odds are good that one of them will have a reanimated zombie buckled into it, and if they see or hear us, they’ll moan and alert the others nearby. If it’s not jammed with cars, there’ll be no cover.

Getting down the lane is the other hard part. Once there, we’re hidden by tall, thick hedges, but those same hedges could trap us, as one side exit leads up to a residential area and the dead could come in from that way, bottling us in. We can only go in if all’s quiet. One person sneaks up to the side exit and keeps an eye out, and only then do the others come through. If rumbled, we’d just have to run - back to the attic or forward to the gate.

If we can reach the back gate far enough ahead of them, we can climb it. Chris and I did it enough times, though don’t tell the teachers I said that. Otherwise, we’ll have to gain some ground, run down the canal path and hope the very steep hill and bicycle gates let us get ahead enough to climb the fence. Hopefully, though, they’d never even notice us.

Once in, we’d systematically clear the grounds of any wandering undead with the axes we’d brought. Any staircase leading from the ground floor to the first floor would be demolished with the sledgehammers, aided by the saws or grinders. This would be noisy work, but at the time we even knew how many staircases there were, and had split our group into teams to bring them down as fast as possible.

Phase Three: The Long Haul

So, we’re now safe on the unreachable second (and third, and fourth) floor of the school. We had plans for what we were going to do next, too.

- Put the school minibuses against the two gates, and fill them completely with concrete rubble from the destroyed stairs, making the gates immovable

- Inventory everything

- Use groundskeepers tools to convert the football fields into vegetable fields, and start growing spuds. Good enough for pre-Famine subsistence peasants, good enough for post-Zombies subsistence peasants.

- Destroy the staircases leading to the third floor of the school, creating a secondary fallback point if the dead somehow get in to the first floor. Use retractable ladders to get around

- Rig up a waterwheel in the canal that will fill our stocks of water, as well as rain catchers on the roofs

- Brick up or otherwise block the steel outer door to the generator room. As this is the only way into the room, we’ll need to make a new “door” in the ceiling and access it by ladder. The generator must have adequate exhaust ventilation. Thanks to noise and the visibility of lights at night, it will be run only in an absolute emergency, like a mass night attack

- Move the high-powered telescope that I know for a damn fact is in Mrs. Forde’s science-class storeroom into the bell tower, and place a lookout up there on shifts. If we have a high-powered rifle, put that up there too, although we almost definitely don’t

- Convert the third-floor study hall into a communal safe zone, like a castle keep

- Move the DT workshop tools to the second floor of the main building wherever possible

- Do the same for the gym equipment and music room stuff

- Use the DT supplies to make a good sturdy crossbow that fires a bit of rebar, and use it to thin out any zombies that are bothering the fence by nailing them at point-blank range. Do this as often and as thoroughly as possible, and burn the bodies

- Turn the smaller classrooms into bedrooms

- Build a concealed lookout platform in the trees overlooking the bishop’s house, the gate and the housing developments at our border

- Convert Terry T’s amazing art studio classroom overlooking the football fields into a War Room

- Is everybody sufficiently armed and trained? If not, why not? Sort it out

- Prepare for an emergency evacuation with bug-out-bags, drilling and training, and, if possible, workshop-made escape boats that can be quickly hoiked into the canal

And then all that would be left to do would be settling in - enjoying our new lives as very, very quiet subsistence farmers, with a rota for harvesting spuds and courgettes, trapping seagulls, cutting firewood and point-blank crossbowing the rotting cadavers that are besieging our fences.

Long evenings of reading in the library, keeping fit in the gym, playing music and board games, mending clothes and equipment, and worrying if a huge mass of ravenous, decayed flesh is squeezing itself through a gap in our defences somewhere.

We even had these code names all ready to go. Me, with my bow and hatchet, callsign “Apache”. My brother, the young buck with a samurai-style sword that I was going to make him from rebar in the DT workshop, callsign “Ronin”. Our father, looted policeman’s 9mm hanging from his gunbelt like an Old West sheriff, callsign “Padre.”

I wish, just once, I could put that much thought and energy into my actual, real existence.

Let me tell you though, although this plan might be a decade out of date and now impossible to achieve, if the hungry dead had risen to devour the living in 2007, I’d be living the high life right now.

What is Proper House Cleaning and Why it's Important

Everyone likes a neat and clean place to stay as it keeps us healthy and creates a better and happy environment. Somehow, cleaning a cluttered and messy house makes everyone feel tired and overwhelmed. It is an alarming task and usually missed due to the daily things people do for a living. It can be challenging to keep the house clean, but you won’t have to spend several hours cleaning if you follow the right approach.

In today’ lifestyles, it’s difficult to take out time to clean your house, and the unattended mess creates stress. Thus, routine house clean out is a must to keep the house fresh and hygienic place to stay. There are some high traffic areas which tend to get incredibly dirty and keeping them dirt less becomes difficult.

While a regular house cleaning is done on a routine basis to make the house free from dust and dirt, proper cleaning gives a deep cleansing and sanitation to the house so that you get the cleanliness that you want. House cleaning is a challenging task that is not only time consuming but also doesn’t gives satisfactory results. Let DG Cleaning and Carpet Care do a deep cleaning of your home, business, or industrial complex.

Here are some reasons why you need proper cleaning and why it is important:

In Carpet Cleaning

Carpet cleaning is one of the most tedious tasks involved in the daily house clean. People use cleaning agents like baking soda, vinegar, ammonia etc. for clearing the carpet of impurities during routine house cleaning. And even after that, they don’t get satisfactory results. Some people also buy specific chemicals for their rugs which are harsh to use. It is advisable to speak to experienced cleaning companies like DG Cleaning and Carpet Care LLC, before using any such product and to know the cleaning standards in Florida, so that may not end up destroying the carpet or even getting injured.

The tools they use are more useful as it can spray more detergent into the carpet and can remove maximum dirt. Also, the carpets take less time to dry if a professional carpet steam cleaner is being used.

In Cleaning the Upholstery

Furniture goes through daily wear and tear and thus easily wears away over a short amount of time. Upholstery cleaning is a tiring task and to maintain your house; it is vital to preserve and protect your furniture and fabric. There are some methods for regular cleaning of your upholstery, but some stains can be so deep in the material that it creates strong odors or even pollutants that can be dangerous for you and your family.

DG Cleaning and Carpet Care LLC cleaners use high-quality cleaning equipment and environment-friendly cleaning products that are specifically meant for your furniture and will deep clean it without fading the fabric. Hence, to protect your furniture and sustain the fibers or the material, having a proper cleaning is essential.

In Cleaning of the Challenging Areas

There are so many places in our house that get ignored during regular cleaning. Places like shades, blinds and drapes accumulate dirt and dust that may require an in-depth clean than just a simple dusting. Getting professional assistance for managing the ignored areas of your house is imperative to clean these areas methodically. In fact, professional cleaners will inspect everything to make sure that your home is deep-cleaned, from sanitizing bathrooms, indoor and outdoor window cleaning, revamping your flooring, cleaning or fix tile floors to marble restoration carpet cleaning and sanitation.
