Asiago isn't a stronger cheese, but its marginally less expensive and more crumbly (less hard) than parmesan. I think chunks of cheese works better in bread than all mixed up in the flour. Parmesan adds more of a 'background' taste. You can through in something from the spices with asiago as well, some rosemary or some thyme.

A reminder why we can't risk exposure to Covid 19
RealAvalon replied to Old Blue's topic in Men's Health
The USA is unique in having no federal coordinated planning and responsibility for COVID. It must be very frustrating to be working the health care 'system' in such a situation. COVID has people talking about rates a lot. And that 100,000 in less than two months, that's a rate of almost 2,000 deaths everyday for the foreseeable future. Even if the President manage nothing more, than saying everyday, wash your hands, don't touch your face, wear a mask. Even that minimal task would save countless lives. -

I wouldn't want to go back to those closeted times, and it would be nice to see some of these places amongst the lists of National Historical Monuments. Thanks for the 1st person description of them. Perfect dialogue for the head set, while on an educational tour.

A reminder why we can't risk exposure to Covid 19

Given the non-standardize way of recording COVID deaths, I expect the go to will be the large jump in the overall death rate that has been seen month to month from 2019 to 2020. This would be a maximum estimate rather than a minimum estimate. Which would be unusual, as social scientists typically rely on minimum estimates to be on the safe side of analysis (e.g. homeless number estimates). -

Yes, it does. The 'event' is human life. -
A reminder why we can't risk exposure to Covid 19

In BC that have been a few different actions around nursing homes, which Ontario didn't do. 1. provincial regulations were passed for 'one site employment.' The spread in nursing homes was identified, early on, as resulting from staff moving from facility to facility. Nursing home jobs are often casual low-paying jobs (in the privately owned homes in particular). The province passed regulations that an employee can work only at one facility, not multiple facilities, one result was that more jobs were regularized into full-time positions. There was also a wage subsidy created to raise everyone's wages to the lowest unionized wage in the sector. 2. PPE was provided by the province to all senior facilities whether they were public facilities or private facilities 3. Family members haven't been able to visit grannie in the home since March. This has been the source of the greatest public outcry so far, in emotional terms. One daughter took the regulation to court and the result was that the daughter was able to move into the home, and not leave, so that she could assist with the care for her mom with dementia. -

A reminder why we can't risk exposure to Covid 19

No one here is locked in their house, unless they are actively contagious and are self-isolating. We've had wide spread testing, tracing and isolating, as needed. Extensive social distancing, with provincial regulations developed and inspected for work places and essential services (food, gas, etc.). Public health has focussed on educating people - wash your hands, don't touch your face, wear your mask. None of it legislated. Just the obvious responsible to each other citizenship. We had a state of emergency declared for 10 weeks, directed at containing the virus, and it's mostly worked (other than seniors care homes). The result, in a province with 5.1 million people, we had one death yesterday. The day before yesterday, zero deaths. And the day before that, one death. New cases are regularly in the single digits every day. Why? Because people have changed their behaviors, are listening to the advice of public health officers, and wearing masks. The economy is opening; schools are opening. Opening as much as the health care system can manage. If it gets to be too much for the health care system, some restrictions will be reinstated. We learn more about this new virus everyday, because we still know very little about it. Whatever you're angry about, share that with someone you love. -

No one knows that. This is a new virus that we are learning things about everyday. No one knows if there is immunity or not. Magical thinking isn't super helpful right now. Your statement is scientifically baseless and ignorant. -

9/11 was 3,000. Is that also unimportant to you? 1/33rd as important, as the current pandemic? -

The coordinated goal of federal and provincial governments in Canada is to flatten the curve, except in the places where its declining or already zero. -
Nothing? Well, that's quite chill of you then.

From the vegetables past their prime shelf I managed to buy two heads of cauliflower, a large leak, eight carrots and three zucchini for $9.20 which I thought was a pretty good price. Food prices are expected to rise by 4% in Canada over the next year, with general inflation hovering at about 1/2% maybe.

I've been keeping an eye on Alabama cases/deaths, just because it has the same population as British Columbia (5.1 million). BC is more of an international destination (Vancouver) with very strong ties to East Asian countries, and has had a longer exposure to the virus. Yesterday, one death and nine new cases in BC, day before yesterday, zero deaths and nine new cases. Deaths in BC: 162 Deaths in Alabama: 590 Cases in BC: 2,550 Cases in Alabama: 16,101 -

Absolutely. AIDS activists change the nature of health care, with the informed patient asking questions and expecting answers. -
