Dear Geveret Smith,
I am writing to address some concerns that you expressed in your letter about the class #holiday activities held over the past week.
First of all, I want to express that our #PublicSchool loves ALL our #students.

Naturally, we were surprised to receive such a long list of complaints from you about our #winter #holiday #programming, considering that we go so far out of our way to accommodate our #Christian students.

The interior of a single virus particle contains a dense assembly of #ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) that package the genome to form the #nucleocapsid (protein shell of a virus). Notable, it has a cylindrical shape that matches the particle geometry. 1/10

However, many peope have not understood that these viruses do not #spread exponentially, but in waves (fairy tale of #exponential #growth). 2/10
In this regard, Farr's Law should be mentioned (William #Farr on patterns of #epidemic events), which was banned from the German #wikipedia at the time, but could still be read in the English wikipedia. In the meantime it has marginally reappeared. 3/10

ZBF release finally draws closer (zero2050usa.com). We have been working to get the data/report out & understandable. Here is a short thread with some interesting observations that we made. First, here is a cheat sheet for our scenarios (a wide spread of possibilities)
First, we find that scenarios have huge amounts of #wind & #solar. We also find that deployment rates for these (& #storage) must dramatically increase to reach our goals (with and without novel generation).
This becomes increasingly important for limited technology cases & huge for #storage in terms of energy capacity.
A few hours ago, the @OttawaCitizen posted an article entitled, "Face to Face with COVID deniers in the ICU."

We knew QUITE early on who & where the high risk population was.
Our previous plans ALL included focused protection...
AND mitigating the impact on the rest of society.

The rest of the world is opening up & Ontario will be left behind in the dust.

A few hours ago, the Ottawa Citizen posted an article "Front-line hospital workers say they feel betrayed by the province."

However, this (clearly) union-fueled article completely missed the mark.

Yes, we are feeling worn down and betrayed by the Governments of Ontario & Canada.
But we are feeling worn down and betrayed NOT by the pandemic (aka the disease itself) - but by the governments' response to it:

- riddled our children with fear,

Hey #Ontario

Fascinatingly, for decades now there has been a #seasonal pattern to U.S. real #GDP growth whereby first quarter growth tends to come in lower than trend and then improves later in the year.
As to why this is the case, there are many theories, but we suggest that #inventory dynamics, weather, and the timing of #policy stimulus in the most recent decade could all play a part in persistent economic seasonality.
