NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee officials are appealing a judge's order that blocked the state's new severe limits on when public schools can require masks during the COVID-19 pandemic and its ban against local officials making decisions about quarantines in schools.
The state filed its notice of appeal last week in U.S. District Court in Nashville.
Judge Waverly Crenshaw blocked the education provisions of the sweeping new law last month while the court case proceeds, saying the law "offers no protection to students, let alone those that are disabled."
The state filed a motion asking the judge to unblock the provisions during the appeal, arguing that the law provides sufficient accommodations under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act.

Intellidex's head of capital markets research, Peter Attard Montalto, attended the UK-Africa Investment Summit in London on 20 January. He conveys his thoughts on some issues affecting South Africa.
There was a really great buzz at the summit and its side events, thanks in part to the fact it was packed with over 2,000 people coming together in one place, some barnstorming rhetoric from Boris Johnson and a collaborative atmosphere between capital deployers and capital users.
Clearly everyone understood the opportunities on the continent as a whole but also appreciated the depth of talent, capital and knowledge that is available in London regarding funding for the African continent.
South Africa, however, got somewhat lost in the mix.
The fact President Cyril Ramaphosa didn't turn up and Finance Minister Tito Mboweni was somewhat underutilised meant that the government, despite a busy schedule, was somewhat left behind by other, more dynamic government delegations. These had more specific, well-crafted sales pitches and a firm offer – generally as part of regional hubs playing to specific domestic strengths and specialisations.
We saw in last year's presidential investment conference in South Africa and in speeches from International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor that SA still lacks a crisp narrative apart from "things are getting better, we are big". In fact, a speech that Pandor gave on Sunday night at an event I attended really failed to hit the market – but in a way that often crops up with the government. The idea somehow emerges that SA is a charity case and because it suffered apartheid and came out the other side, it is thought of as a good narrative for investment. This is crazy.
Investors look to the future and analyse risk-adjusted returns. Similarly, the idea was expressed that if investors are unwilling to invest in SA then the country would "go it alone". Robust sentiments for sure but not a helpful pitch.
The government sorely needs to work on its offering and pitch.
Ramaphosa's presence would not have made a huge amount of difference in London – or Davos – to be honest, though the rhetoric would have been crisper and tighter.
SAA and Eskom
SAA is seen as a sign of the status quo in both policy and more general thinking and attitude to the economy. This concerns investors, even if the issue itself has little direct bearing on foreign investors who avoid SAA wherever possible.
Eskom has some elements of this "revealed preference" around the functioning of the developmental state but energy security is actually the real issue. We are seeing the impact now of closing smelters coming through in company results but foreign manufacturers look at the operational problems, the lack of procurement of new generation capacity and political and ideological blockages to embedded and distributed generation. Then they just see that the cost benefit analysis gets thrown out of whack because of the need to install generators or other alternatives for their operations.
More generally, the electricity situation relegates SA to an unfortunate "any other African country" bucket in marketing terms – but more so given the lack of speedy progress on resolving it. Of course, this has a more direct impact of blocking off potential investments in renewable energy.
Reform and policy inertia
Fundamentally, reform is about moving the cost-benefit dial for investors and action is needed now for future effect.
There are so many things that could have been done; it is partly about tone and moving away from state-owned assets like SAA, recognising a crisis and a need for speed and talking to that in resolutions. The ANC should also put pressure on government, for instance, by setting timelines on reporting back.
More specifically, there could have been much more specificity on unblocking issues like embedded generation and distributed generation, specific references to REIPPP round 5 occurring, highlighting desired outcomes from the energy war room and dialling down references to clean coal.
More widely there should have been focus on the "Tito paper" itself and its implementation. Overall however, it is action that should be the focus.
The problems here that are deep-seated and are ones of public relations and spin obscuring reality, policy contestation in government and then blockages of ideology, inefficiency, ineptitude and lack of capacity all coming together in a toxic mix to prevent policy flowing into implementation action. This is compounded by a very late realisation and then minimal action by the Presidency to actual find ways of bypassing the dysfunctional state by using the private sector and trusting it to deliver – which in turn loops back to mindset and the status quo.
In relation to that, ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule's statement that the recent NEC meeting in Irene was "the best NEC meeting they've had" is largely spin that analysts – and investors – are sceptical of. We poke more for our clients on the details of what actually occurred.
There were some small and subtle shifts occurring at this NEC that we have been talking to clients about (accepting restructuring at SAA for instance) but the reality is that much stayed the same.

It's easy to get your priorities confused when you are faced with Armageddon but it's still hard to comprehend that gambling group GVC (GVC) has bounced back way beyond its pre-crisis level and continues to rise. Contrast that with pharmaceuticals group GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) where shares have almost slipped back to their March low. Perhaps people have decided that if you are going to die tomorrow you might as well gamble your money away rather than bank on a Covid-19 cure coming to save us at the last minute.
GVC reported net gaming revenue up 12% in the third quarter, with online gaming ahead of pre-coronavirus levels. The inability of sports fans to attend matches seems to have enhanced rather than dimmed their enthusiasm for betting on the results.
Momentum is building up in the United States, where net revenue for the full year is set to beat expectations. Operations in Australia are booking as well. Success abroad has prompted GVC to buy a leading online gambling operator in Portugal.
The shares slumped from 931p to 325p in the stock market carnage in February and March but have since climbed all the way to 1,050p. That is close to the all-time high of 1,132p set just over two years ago, yet there is no obvious reason why shareholders should take profits at this stage. While I think that the shares have recovered far enough for now, I wouldn't bet on it.
HSS Could Fall Further
Is the pot 90% full or 10% empty? It's a question specifically for shareholders in HSS Hire (HSS) but it has wider implications as we come out of the worst of the pandemic.
HSS took a bad knock during lockdown, in common with all companies in the construction industry, but it boasts that revenue is now running at over 90% of last year's levels. While that is admittedly much better than the 63% recorded in the second quarter to June 27, another way of putting it is that revenue is still not back to last year's levels.
That wouldn't be quite so bad if HSS had not reported a pretax loss in the first half of last year and a much bigger loss this time. Getting back to last year's levels is simply not good enough.
HSS proposes to close physical sites and accelerate the switch to digital sales and click-and-collect. This will cost money, including redundancy payments for 300 staff, while it will take quite some time to see if this works. In the meantime, HSS is, understandably, not offering any financial guidance.
The shares peaked at 115p just over four years ago but they were worth less than half that at 43p even before Covid-19 struck. They have since halved again at just over 20p, which is even lower than the level hit at the bottom of the stock market collapse. Unless there is a drastic improvement any time soon, they could lose half their value once again … and again.
Castings is Solid
For some illogical reason I feel slightly more optimistic about iron foundry operator Castings (CGS), even though the pot there is still only 85% full. Demand from commercial vehicle makers is recovering but still has some way to go and a messy Brexit could seriously affect exports.
It is reasonable to hope that production will be back to pre-crisis levels during the current quarter. Meanwhile £35 million in cash will tide the group over.
The shares fell from 437p to 281p in Spring and a recovery to 391p has petered out, but at 316p they could be of interest to investors looking for recovery possibilities.

Lifting of lockdown restrictions inches ever closer and that means worry for thousands of people across Ireland.
Those cocooning and in isolation face an uncertain number of months and they need support from those able to return to some form of normality.
extra.ie has been speaking to people with pre-existing conditions and serious illnesses to highlight the reality of post COVID-19 restrictions for the people we are trying to protect.
Saoirse Perry, 27, who was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at birth is among those facing a tense few months and with the seriousness of her illness, cocooning until a vaccine is available will be her new normal.
Saoirse told extra.ie, that despite her diagnosis as a child, she led a 'relatively normal life', until she was in her late teens when her health began to deteriorate.
In her case, she explained that she had 'good lung function in the 90s', but her form of CF caused her serious problems with her liver, which led to a liver transplant in 2014 when she was just 21.
It took the guts of two years for her to fully recover, but her illness remains a serious worry, especially as COVID-19 is rife, as she is also on immunosuppressant medication related to the transplant.
Speaking to extra.ie, Saoirse explained: 'It happened so quickly over the course of the year I went through absolute hell, I went through everything possible.
'I came out the other end of it, I got my liver transplant, then I returned to college and I haven't looked back since.
'Obviously it changes, I'm on immunosuppressants now so my immune system is compromised.
'I have noticed pre-transplant I wouldn't have gotten many chest infections and now I have to be very careful because I would be susceptible to getting colds, flus and having to go in for IV treatment.'
'I still returned to college and I got my degree and I was able to go on and do a full time year intensive masters.'
Saoirse's most recent bout of illness came in February when she picked up a flu, despite having received her flu jab.
It took her nearly one month to recover and on her first day back at work as a teaching librarian at Maynooth University, it was decided that she would need to cocoon at home as the threat from COVID-19 grew.
Saoirse explained: 'I had the flu in February so I have been cocooning since February.
'I got the flu shot and unfortunately it was just a strain that slipped through, so I was sick anyway, which was really concerning.
'So when something like COVID comes along and your immune system is already compromised from having CF and being post-transplant, while having battled the flu, it's quite a terrifying threat.'
'I cocooned from around then, I recovered and I went back to work for one day and I had the conversation with my management in Maynooth University.
'They were absolutely fantastic. Straight away, the minute I came back they identified that I was high risk and they weren't comfortable for me to be in the office.'
For someone in Saoirse's position the danger of getting sick is amplified and illness is accompanied by weeks in hospital undergoing IV antibiotic treatment.
Thankfully she recovered from her flu and is now remaining indoors with her boyfriend Cillian who is cocooning with her as an extra precaution.
'At the beginning it was definitely hard because at one point he was working and I was cocooning and that really only happened for a week or two,' she said of her partner.
'Where he worked he was able to be protected — he wore gloves and a mask and all the rest, but that was only for a week and then he had to cocoon himself.
'He had no contact with anyone because he was living with me and once COVID infection rates increased, the two of us just limited contact with anyone.
'It was just too dangerous. He does shopping, but when he goes he wears the gloves, the mask, he disinfects his hands afterwards.
'When he goes back into the house he sanitises again. There's a lot of self-sanitisation and the bacterial wipes and all that.
'He had to cocoon the minute I had to cocoon because it would defeat the purpose if he was going out and meeting people.'
It looks like that system will remain the order of the year and possibly beyond for the couple, as Saoirse sees herself cocooning in some way, shape or form until there is a vaccine.
What is especially important, with that in mind, is that a new drug, named in the US as Trikafta, which would be the first available for someone with Saoirse's form of CF, is due be available for her from early next year, pending European Medicines Agency approval.
In order for the drug to work as effectively as possible, Saoirse says that it is imperative that she and others in her position remain in the best health possible.
She told extra.ie: 'I think, to be honest, I'll be cocooning as much as I can possibly until there's a vaccine.
'I've said this to numerous people — no matter how low the infection rate is when it comes to the final phase, there's still a risk there.
'Even the smallest risk, that's the risk that threatens the population of people that are high risk and I don't think anyone is going to take that risk.
'When I was about to return to work in March, the infection rate was extremely low and I was so anxious thinking about getting on a train or anything.
'The rate was so low that there was probably only a few people with it, but I just wouldn't take that chance because I know for a fact that my immune system wouldn't be able to battle it.
She continued: 'Just for the record, I had that flu in February, and COVID is being made out to be a more serious virus than the flu, and that debilitated me completely.
'I'm still not 100% better. They say that the effects of the flu can last up to six weeks minimum for someone with cystic fibrosis.
'Thinking along those lines and thinking that if I got COVID, I would nearly assume I would end up in ICU. It's just to put it in perspective if you're looking at someone with a compromised immune system.'
Saoirse believes that it is extremely important that supports for those in her position are available in the months to come.
She highlighted support from employers to work from home, access to food and medical supplies as some of the most important areas for those forced to continue cocooning.
With a worry of complacency among the population still rife, Saoirse believes that people are trying their best.
'I think they're definitely trying. It's a difficult situation and we've been in lockdown for so long,' the librarian said.
'I think the majority of people are taking it seriously, but I do think there's a lack of consistency and people are getting a bit complacent.
'It's kind of understandable, I do sympathise. There are a lot of people out there who obviously understand the importance of social distancing and not gathering.
'But it's just a hard balance because they really miss their parents, grandparents and their friends and I think it's just crucial that people realise that we need to hang in there that little bit longer.
'In the grand scheme of things it could be worse and I think it's important that media outlets highlight that to people, because the complacency is because people aren't focussed on what the main goal is.
'And if everyone was reminded every day that we just need to get past this stage, we just need to get through this year, I think people will realise it's not that long.'
In relation to restrictions being lifted in the coming weeks, Saoirse said that people need to be aware of the impact that it will have on people with CF.
'When people say, as the phases are coming in, "oh great, I can't wait to meet my friends", we can't even consider that,' she said, as she and others will be cocooning until a vaccine is available.
'Once the phases come into play and people can start to see each other, even in smaller groups, that's not us.
'There is that sadness to it that we're not considered like everyone else and there's a fear there that it's not over for us.
'Lastly, it's so important for people to know that even with the lessening of restrictions, the normal that we did know is gone.
'We're going to have a new normal and that is continuing to self-isolate and also continuing the hand hygiene etiquette.
'They are part of the new normal, they are absolutely crucial for getting out of this situation.
'People can't just go straight back to hugging and kissing and touching or going into work when they have a bit of a cold, so hopefully those things start changing.
'We're always at risk, COVID or not. We've to put up with people coming into work sick and being like "okay, it's grand", but it's not okay. The CF community are hoping that positives come out of this as well for those that are at risk.'

With a responsive design your site is flexible. It will be able to detect what type of device your user is on and adapt accordingly. The user won't have to pinch and zoom to navigate the page. The pictures and font resize to fit the screen. The content may be reduced to eliminate clutter and make it easier to browse. This will all be with the same URL, unlike a mobile website (which is displayed at a different address.)
Who would benefit from a responsive design?
Responsive design are a more expensive route but they may be a good solution in the long run.
- If you're considering a new site design or plan to redo your site, then a responsive design would be a great option at this point.

Background: An increasingly ageing society together with concerns about sustainability of old-age benefits call for reforming the care structure of many western welfare states. However, finding an acceptable balance between the formal care provided by institutions and informal care provided by family members is a delicate policy choice with profound ethical implications.
Spousal caregiving offers a unique opportunity to investigate how gender shapes the influence of care responsibilities on health at older ages. However, empirical evidence supporting a causal link between the transitions into and out of caregiving and health is mixed. This study investigates the influence of spousal care transitions on the health of older men and women living in 17 European countries. We use five waves of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) between the years 2004 and 2015 for a total of 43,435 individuals and 117,831 observations.
In the era of global ageing, amid political concerns about increasing care needs and long-term sustainability of current care regimes, most high-income economies are seeking to minimise the use of institutional care and to expand formal home care for their older populations. In long-term care reforms, concerns about public funding, formal providers and the paid care workforce are foremost. However, an integral yet hidden part of all these reforms is the stealthily growing role of family carers.
Sweden is seen as a typical example of a social democratic welfare regime, with universal and generous welfare policies. However, in the last decades, there have been substantial reductions in the Swedish provision of care for older people. This study aimed to examine trends in sources of care-receipt in older people (77+) living in their own home and with a perceived need for help with two specific tasks: house cleaning and/or food shopping. Trends in care-receipt were examined in relation to gender, living alone, having children and socio-economic position.
The social risk literature examines the extent to which states have provided social protection against the 'old' social risks of the post-war era and the 'new' social risks affecting post-industrial capitalist states. In this paper the contingency of the provision of informal care to people aged 65 and over is discussed. The paper deconstructs the concept of social risk to determine the characteristics and processes which contribute to states recognising specific contingencies as social risks which require social protection.
The French system of social care policy for dependent older people is an allowance known as the Prestation Specifique Dependance (PSD) from January 1997 to December 2001 and subsequently the Allocation Personalisee a l'Automie (APA) from January 2002 for services or to pay a member of the family. The chapter covers demographic factors underlying this policy development with statistical tables, and the two principal stages of French social care policy, examining the impact of these on carers who may be either formal (paid) or informal (unpaid).
This Viewpoint, written by Caroline Glendinning at the University of York and David Bell at the University of Stirling, draws on the experiences of other countries to argue that social care is a collective, welfare state responsibility rather than an individual, private responsibility.
Other key points include:
social care arrangements in many other countries are equal and universal: everyone is eligible regardless of wealth, and people with similar levels of disability receive care no matter where they live;

If you find yourself in possession of a coffee maker that boasts the ability to grind beans, but you're short on whole beans, fear not! You may be wondering if it's possible to utilize pre-ground coffee in such a machine. The answer to that question is a resounding yes. While it may seem counterintuitive to use pre-ground coffee in a coffee maker that grinds beans, it is entirely possible and can still result in a delicious cup of joe.
Understanding the Coffee Making Process
Coffee making is a delightful ritual that involves several steps to achieve the perfect cup. To fully appreciate the process, it's important to understand how coffee makers work and the significance of grinding the beans. Additionally, using freshly ground coffee can greatly enhance your coffee experience. Let's delve deeper into these topics to gain a better understanding.
How Coffee Makers Work
Coffee makers are designed to brew coffee by mixing heated water with ground coffee beans. The water passes through a filter containing the coffee grounds, extracting the flavors and oils from the beans. The resulting liquid, known as brewed coffee, is collected in a carafe or cup, ready for you to enjoy. Different types of coffee makers may have variations in their brewing methods, but ultimately, they all aim to produce aromatic and flavorful coffee.
The Importance of Grinding Beans
Grinding coffee beans is a crucial step in the coffee-making process as it directly affects the taste and quality of your brew. When coffee beans are ground, their surface area increases, allowing for better extraction of flavors during the brewing process. This means that finely ground coffee will yield a stronger and more flavorful cup of coffee compared to coarsely ground coffee. By grinding your own beans, you have control over the grind size, allowing you to customize your coffee experience.
Benefits of Using Freshly Ground Coffee
Using freshly ground coffee in your coffee maker provides numerous benefits that can elevate your morning routine or coffee break. Firstly, fresh coffee beans retain their flavors and aromas much better than pre-ground coffee that has been exposed to air and light. This means that by grinding your beans just before brewing, you can enjoy a richer and more aromatic cup of coffee.
Furthermore, freshly ground coffee offers you the opportunity to experiment with different grind sizes, allowing you to adjust the flavor profile of your brew based on your personal preferences. Whether you prefer a stronger, bolder cup or a milder, more delicate flavor, having control over the grind size enables you to tailor your coffee to your desired taste.
Using Pre-Ground Coffee in a Coffee Maker
While using freshly ground coffee is advantageous, there may be times when using pre-ground coffee is more convenient. Perhaps you're in a rush or don't have access to a coffee grinder. In such cases, it's essential to understand the compatibility of pre-ground coffee with various coffee makers, potential drawbacks, and how to adjust brewing settings accordingly.
Compatibility with Coffee Makers
Pre-ground coffee is compatible with the majority of coffee makers, including drip coffee makers, French presses, espresso machines, and manual or semi-automatic coffee makers. These machines are designed to accommodate ground coffee, making them suitable for brewing a cup of coffee without the need for grinding your own beans.
Potential Drawbacks
Using pre-ground coffee does come with a few potential drawbacks. One of the most significant downsides is the loss of aroma and flavor. Pre-ground coffee, especially if it has been exposed to air for an extended period, tends to lose its vibrant flavors and aromatic qualities. The result may be a less satisfying and less enjoyable cup of coffee.
Another potential drawback is the increased risk of stale coffee. Pre-ground coffee has a shorter shelf life compared to whole beans because grinding exposes more surface area, allowing oxygen to accelerate the staling process. Stale coffee can taste flat and lack the vibrant notes found in freshly ground beans.
Adjusting Brewing Settings
To maximize the potential of pre-ground coffee, it's crucial to adjust the brewing settings of your coffee maker. While different types of coffee makers may require specific adjustments, there are several general parameters to consider: grind size, coffee-to-water ratio, and brew time and temperature.
Factors to Consider
When deciding between using pre-ground coffee or grinding your own beans, there are several factors to consider. These include the type of coffee maker you own, the quality of coffee desired, storage conditions, and your personal brewing preferences. Let's explore each of these factors in more detail.
Type of Coffee Maker
The type of coffee maker you own plays a significant role in determining whether to use pre-ground coffee or grind your own beans. Automatic grind and brew machines are designed to process whole beans, making them suitable for grinding fresh coffee. On the other hand, manual or semi-automatic coffee makers are compatible with both pre-ground coffee and freshly ground beans.
Drip coffee makers typically accommodate pre-ground coffee, as the brewing process relies on the coffee passing through a paper filter. French presses, espresso machines, and other specialized coffee makers can also work with pre-ground coffee, providing flexibility in your brewing choices.
Coffee Quality
The quality of your coffee greatly impacts the taste and overall enjoyment of your brew. While pre-ground coffee can still produce a decent cup, grinding your own beans allows you to access a higher level of coffee quality. Freshness, roast level, grind consistency, and bean varieties all contribute to the overall coffee experience.
Freshly ground coffee ensures that the flavors and aromas are at their peak. By grinding the beans just before brewing, you capture the essence of the coffee, resulting in a more satisfying cup. Additionally, you have control over the roast level and grind consistency, allowing you to tailor the flavor profile to your liking. Lastly, experimenting with different bean varieties opens up a world of flavors and complexities that pre-ground coffee may not offer.
Storage Conditions
The way you store your coffee, whether pre-ground or whole beans, greatly impacts its freshness and flavor. For pre-ground coffee, it's crucial to store it properly to minimize the loss of flavor over time. Airtight containers kept in a cool, dry, and dark place are ideal for preserving the freshness of the coffee. By limiting exposure to air, moisture, and light, you can extend the shelf life and retain as much flavor as possible.
Brewing Preferences
Your personal preferences and desired coffee taste profile should also influence your decision. Are you a fan of strong, bold flavors, or do you prefer a milder, more balanced cup? Some individuals enjoy the aroma and subtle notes found in freshly ground coffee, while others may prefer the convenience and consistency of pre-ground coffee. By understanding and considering your brewing preferences, you can make an informed choice that aligns with your taste preferences.
Compatibility with Coffee Makers
Automatic grind and brew machines, as the name implies, are specifically designed to handle both the grinding and brewing process. These machines are capable of transforming whole beans into freshly brewed coffee, making them the ideal choice for those who prioritize freshness. By combining convenience and customization, automatic grind and brew machines provide a seamless coffee-making experience.
On the other hand, manual or semi-automatic coffee makers can accommodate both pre-ground coffee and freshly ground beans. These machines offer flexibility in brewing options, allowing you to enjoy your favorite cup of coffee without the need for a separate grinder. Whether you opt for pre-ground coffee or grind your own beans, these coffee makers can adapt to your preferences.
Potential Drawbacks of Using Pre-Ground Coffee
While pre-ground coffee offers convenience, there are a few drawbacks that should be taken into consideration. One of the most noticeable disadvantages is the loss of aroma and flavor. Pre-ground coffee, especially if it has been exposed to air for an extended period, tends to lose its vibrant flavors and aromatic qualities. This can result in a less enjoyable and satisfying cup of coffee.
Additionally, using pre-ground coffee increases the risk of consuming stale coffee. Grinding coffee beans exposes more surface area to air, causing the coffee to lose freshness more rapidly compared to whole beans. Stale coffee lacks the vibrant and nuanced flavors found in freshly ground beans, leading to a subpar coffee experience.
Another potential drawback is the inconsistent extraction that can occur with pre-ground coffee. Different coffee makers require specific grinds to enhance the extraction process, and pre-ground coffee may not offer the ideal grind size for your machine. This can result in an imbalanced or weak cup of coffee that doesn't reach its full potential.
Adjusting Brewing Settings
To optimize the use of pre-ground coffee in a coffee maker, it's essential to adjust the brewing settings accordingly. By making small tweaks to the grind size, coffee-to-water ratio, brew time, and temperature, you can improve the taste and overall quality of your brew.
Grind Size
Choosing the right grind size is crucial for extracting the desired flavors from pre-ground coffee. Different coffee makers require specific grind sizes to achieve optimal extraction. When using pre-ground coffee, make sure to adjust your machine's settings to match the recommended grind size for your brewing method. This will help ensure that the water extracts the flavors evenly, resulting in a well-balanced cup of coffee.
Coffee-to-Water Ratio
The coffee-to-water ratio is another important parameter to consider when brewing with pre-ground coffee. Experimenting with different ratios allows you to fine-tune the strength and flavor profile of your brew. While there are general guidelines available, personal preference plays a significant role in determining the perfect ratio for you. Start with the recommended ratio and adjust to your taste preferences by gradually increasing or decreasing the amount of coffee used.
Brew Time and Temperature
The brew time and temperature are critical factors that influence extraction and flavor development. Different types of coffee require different brew times and temperatures to bring out their best qualities. It's essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and recommendations for your specific coffee maker. By monitoring and adjusting these parameters, you can achieve a well-extracted cup of coffee that showcases the flavors and characteristics of the pre-ground coffee.
Type of Coffee Maker
The type of coffee maker you choose impacts the overall brewing process and the resulting cup of coffee. Different coffee makers offer unique brewing methods, which influence the flavor, aroma, and strength of the final brew. Here are a few common types of coffee makers and their suitability for pre-ground coffee.
Grind and Brew Machines
Grind and brew machines are the perfect choice for those who prioritize freshness and flavor. These machines have an integrated grinder, allowing you to grind the beans just before brewing. By grinding your own beans, you can experience the bold and vibrant flavors that only freshly ground coffee can offer.
Drip Coffee Makers
Drip coffee makers are versatile and widely used. They accommodate both pre-ground coffee and freshly ground beans, making them a convenient option for most coffee enthusiasts. Whether you're using pre-ground coffee for its ease or grinding your own beans for optimal flavor, drip coffee makers offer flexibility in brewing options.
French Press
The French press is a popular choice for those who appreciate a full-bodied and robust cup of coffee. While it is traditionally designed for coarser grounds, pre-ground coffee can still be used. However, it's important to ensure that the grind size is suitable for the French press. Adjusting the brew time and stirring technique can also help compensate for potential extraction challenges.
Espresso Machines
Espresso machines require a fine grind size for optimal extraction and pressure build-up. While it's possible to use pre-ground coffee, it's important to ensure that the grind size is suitable for espresso. Espresso machines also offer the option of grinding your beans on-demand, allowing for the freshest espresso experience.
Coffee Quality
The quality of the coffee you use significantly impacts the overall taste and enjoyment of your brew. By considering several factors related to coffee quality, you can enhance your coffee-making experience with pre-ground coffee.
Freshness is a key factor in ensuring a flavorful cup of coffee. While pre-ground coffee may not be as fresh as grinding your own beans, choosing a reputable brand that prioritizes freshness can greatly improve the quality of your brew. Look for packaging that indicates the roast date and opt for recently roasted coffee whenever possible.
Roast Level
The roast level of the coffee affects its flavor profile, with varying levels of roast offering different taste experiences. Pre-ground coffee often comes in a range of roast levels, including light, medium, and dark. Understanding your preference for roast level is crucial in selecting pre-ground coffee that aligns with your taste preferences.
Grind Consistency
Consistency in the grind size is essential for even extraction and flavor development. When choosing pre-ground coffee, opt for brands known for their consistency in grind size. This helps ensure that each particle is of similar size, allowing for a more uniform extraction and a better-tasting cup of coffee.
Bean Varieties
Different bean varieties impart unique flavors and characteristics to the coffee. Consider experimenting with various bean varieties to discover the flavors that best suit your palate. Many pre-ground coffee options offer single-origin or blended beans, each with their distinct taste profiles. Exploring different bean varieties can add excitement and depth to your coffee experience.
Storage Conditions
Proper storage conditions are vital for maintaining the freshness and flavor of pre-ground coffee. Without the proper storage, coffee can quickly lose its vibrant qualities, resulting in a less enjoyable brew. Here are some key considerations for storing pre-ground coffee.
Airtight Containers
Using airtight containers is essential for preserving the freshness of pre-ground coffee. Oxygen is one of the main culprits behind the staling process, causing the coffee to lose its flavors more rapidly. By transferring the coffee to an airtight container, you can minimize exposure to oxygen and extend the shelf life of the pre-ground coffee.
Avoiding Exposure to Moisture
Moisture is another enemy of coffee freshness. Pre-ground coffee should be stored in a cool, dry place to minimize the risk of moisture absorption. Moisture can degrade the quality of the coffee and contribute to the development of off-flavors. Therefore, it's crucial to keep your pre-ground coffee away from areas with high humidity, such as close to the stove or in the refrigerator.
Protecting from Light
Exposure to light can also accelerate the degradation of pre-ground coffee. Keeping the coffee away from direct sunlight or bright fluorescent lights can help extend its shelf life. Consider storing the pre-ground coffee in a dark cupboard or utilizing containers with opaque or UV-resistant materials to shield it from light.
Brewing Preferences
When deciding whether to use pre-ground coffee or grind your own beans, your personal brewing preferences play a significant role. Everyone has different taste preferences and desired characteristics in their coffee. By understanding your brewing preferences, you can make an informed decision that aligns with your particular tastes.
Strong vs. Mild
Some people prefer their coffee to be strong and bold, while others enjoy a milder and more delicate cup. Consider your preference for the strength of the coffee when choosing between pre-ground or freshly ground beans. Experimenting with the coffee-to-water ratio and adjusting the brewing parameters can allow you to achieve your desired strength.
Aromatic vs. Subtle
Do you enjoy the intense and captivating aroma of coffee, or do you prefer a more subtle fragrance? Freshly ground coffee often offers a more pronounced and aromatic experience due to the volatile compounds released during grinding. However, some pre-ground coffees can still provide a satisfying aroma that adds to the overall enjoyment of the brew.
Bold vs. Balanced
Consider whether you prefer a bold and robust coffee or a more balanced and nuanced cup. Pre-ground coffee often offers a consistent flavor profile, ensuring a balanced and reliable brew. On the other hand, grinding your own beans allows for customization, enabling you to adjust the grind size and brewing parameters to achieve the desired flavor profile.
In conclusion, the decision to use pre-ground coffee or grind your own beans relies on various factors. Understanding how coffee makers work, the importance of grinding beans, and the benefits of using freshly ground coffee helps clarify the advantages and considerations. By considering the compatibility with different coffee makers, potential drawbacks, and adjusting brewing settings accordingly, you can optimize your coffee-making process. Factors such as the type of coffee maker, coffee quality, storage conditions, and personal brewing preferences also influence the decision-making process. Ultimately, the choice between pre-ground coffee and grinding your own beans is a matter of convenience, flavor preference, and the desire for coffee-making customization.

Mobile devices and cloud computing are changing the way we interact with others and how we deal with everyday tasks. Our real lives are merging with our digital lives – or is it the other way round?
Wearable technologies are driving this process even further. Interactive glasses, watches or digital bracelets are already a reality, becoming accepted elements in our urban landscape. And they will continue evolving: in the near future cyborgs won't be such an exceptionally weird encounter anymore. Once we grasp how much these new gadgets can expand our capabilities, many of us will be using them just as we use smartphones today.
Good practices exist for retaining usability when publishing content where space is key: for example adjusting layout and font size to small screens and avoiding annoying pop-ups. But at ZN, we understand some seriously smart thinking is needed to adapt responsive design to fit the requirements and opportunities of wearable devices – especially since 83% of industry experts believe that wearable technology will see huge growth within the next 10 years, and by 2025, we'll be fully immersed in the Internet of Things.

So far, content on the web is generally addressed to all readers. However, we can already tailor advertisements on the web using big data and monitoring user interaction. These techniques could also help us adapt the story we tell to create a fully tailored experience, where users only access content specifically chosen for them.
With mobile devices, other aspects of the user's environment, such as geolocalization, weather, and time of day, enter more fully into the equation. These criteria become even more pertinent with wearable devices, while their more intimate interfaces break down the barrier of the screen. With Google Glass for instance, we move from devices as tools to access information to a reality complemented with the information we want at any moment. The canvas is not the website anymore, the space where we tell our stories is now reality itself.
Storyboard's Pavni Mittal and Ivan Pollard, Coca-Cola Company's Vice President, Global Connections, discuss real time marketing and wearable technology
The future of storytelling is not about keywords or tags anymore, it is about context. We should aim to create content that not only responds to user behavior, but also to their environment: drawing on information relevant to where they are and input from the Internet of Things surrounding them. Our ambition should be to generate a completely tailored, responsive experience in an augmented reality that users will find helpful and comfortable.
Are you ready to provide your audience with a completely responsive experience?

Mt. Hood Skibowl in Oregon will maintain cyclists off its forested trails this summer time after dropping a lawsuit from a person who stated he slammed right into a signpost and was paralyzed from the waist down.
A Multnomah County jury awarded $11.4 million to Gabriel B. Owens this spring after the bicycle owner's legal professionals stated he hit a rut and collided with a wood signal put in subsequent to the double black-diamond Cannonball bike path on July 31, 2016, The Oreogonian/OregonLive reported.
Owens, 43, settled the case for $10.5 million after the ski resort's legal professionals threatened to enchantment the jury verdict, which might have tied up the cash for years, in keeping with Owens' lawyer, Gretchen Mandekor.
The ski resort ought to have put in collapsible markers on the path crossing, Mandekor stated in the course of the trial, likening the path's situation to "a velocity bump on a freeway" that brought on the previous pro-cyclist to lose management of his bike.
In an undated assertion on its web site, Mt. Hood Skibowl referred to as the decision "unprecedented" and stated it will quickly droop mountain bike operations this summer time.
"After 32 years and not using a critical mountain bike declare of any sort, the winds have shifted," the corporate stated. "Eliminating all dangers with leisure actions, particularly in downhill mountain biking by means of forests at excessive velocity, is one thing that's simply not doable."

The Lakers' most recent signing was big man Christian Wood and despite many thinking he will play a minimum bench role, NBA insider Jovan Buha says otherwise.
"Despite signing a veteran's minimum contract, Wood is expected to have a considerable role for the Lakers off the bench, flanking Anthony Davis in two-big lineups and helping hold down the paint when Davis rests," Buha said. "The Lakers' crowded rotation is even more cramped now."
Of course, Woods will slide immediately into the backup center behind role Anthony Davis.
But as reported last week, Davis wants to play more of a role at power forward this season which will hopefully not be as much of a physical burden on the big man – ie he won't get injured as much.
So if all goes well and Wood exceeds expectations, he could very well make the center spot his own.
The insider went on to explain how Davis and Woods will work in tandem.
"The two centers will likely play most, if not all, of the 48 available minutes at the five, with a smaller player (James, Hachimura) or [Jaxson] Hayes occasionally playing in certain matchups and blowouts," Buha wrote. "(He'll also get minutes when Davis inevitably misses time due to injury)."
One of the biggest challenges the Lakers will face is figuring out the best ways to use Wood and possibly Jaxson Hayes defensively, Buha says.
Last month, Lakers head coach Darvin Ham admitted last year's roster was a little shallow and believes his team now has the pieces to compete strongly for a championship.
"Then, you think about the guys we added in Gabe Vincent, Taurean Prince, Cam Reddish, Jaxson Hayes. I think the sky is the limit for what we will be able to do," Ham told ESPN.
"I think we added a lot of depth, a lot of guys that have skill, size and athleticism, so I look forward to all of that coming together."
Wood is one of the most versatile scoring big men in the league right now, so only time will tell if LA will be a good fit for him.

In Chrome, the fonts look perfect. In the latest Firefox (30.0), everything that should be Roboto is showing up as the browser default font. Weirdly, Roboto Slab is working in headers. What is up with Firefox?
To resolve this issue, you can add the following code to the .htaccess
<FilesMatch "\.(ttf|otf)$"> <IfModule mod_headers.c> Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" </IfModule> </FilesMatch>
Hope this helps !
Thanks for this tip! So this really should work, but it isn't? At least, I tried to get Firefox to hard refresh the page.
I am looking at headers in Firebug, these fonts are not loading:
And I get this error:
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/roboto/v9/W5F8_SL0XFawnjxHGsZjJA.ttf. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.
These fonts are loading properly:
This is Firebug's record of the response:
@font-face {

In fact, Roboto Slab and Roboto header and italic versions are working – only normal isn't loading. It seems random!
I suppose I could upload the fonts to my server and see if that helps.
Aha, I have cracked at least part of it. The problem seems to originate (for whatever reason) in the style code that comes from the fonts in the customizer. I disabled the fonts parts of the customizer (in customizer.php and extras.php) – since I am perfectly happy to tweak CSS in the WordPress editor – and all is well!

NAB has confirmed that it secured the Treasurer's approval last week on its proposed $1.2 billion purchase of Citigroup's Australian retail banking arm, in a statement to Mortgage Business.
"NAB welcomes this next step in the transaction process," the bank stated.
The tick from Treasury has come after NAB and Citi cleared the competition review from the ACCC in November.
The two banks are now waiting for regulatory approvals from APRA, with NAB aiming to wrap up the acquisition by mid-2022.
Previously, the groups expected to finish the deal by March.
Following the acquisition, NAB would become the dominant white label credit card supplier for a number of commercial partners, benefiting from Citi's place in the local market.
It would also continue to compete with its commercial partners in the consumer-facing market.
However, the ACCC had concluded the transaction would not substantially lessen competition in the banking sector, after its review found no concerns with the groups' overlapping market segments, including home loans and credit cards.
Senior management and around 800 Citigroup employees would join NAB.
NAB confirmed that it was seeking to buy the business in July last year, after Citi placed the consumer bank up for sale in April.
Citi had also entered the buy now, pay later market with the launch of its product Spot. in October.

Welcome to Dartmoor Geocaching › Forums › South-West Power Trails › Why so few dartmoor trails? › Reply To: Why so few dartmoor trails?
Dave, why would any part of my question suggest I had exhausted all the possibilities?
Happy to answer your questions, though!
Lych Way – difficult to get transport. It's in my sights and I want to do it one day, but as a solo walker such things are sometimes logistically difficult. Circular walks are definitely more my thing, although I did do the Templer Way last month. (Solo through choice, mostly. Harder to appreciate the landscape when you've got to make smalltalk)
WotWS – again, intend to one day, but forays into the deep moor are few and far for me. I don't get the free time I once did and typically have responsibilities to get back for.
Leap Day – did that within a couple of weeks, IIRC, although not the final as it was too difficult to find.
However, for the casual map-browsers, your series have placements so far apart they're hard to spot as a series as they don't form an obvious loop on the map. You've explained that's your taste, and absolutely don't have a problem with that, but it's much harder to see that there is a series.
And to answer my own question: Yes, I like walking on the open moor, and I don't find geocaching whilst doing so detracts from it. Indeed, it gives me form and targets. Without, I'll sometimes not go as far or get such a sense of achievement. If there were more walks with 0.1 or 0.2m placements in a loop I would do them, and I think others would too, and I'm also thinking as a CO – although I may need to consider time vs maint with 50 odd out already. I'm thinking of walks 2-10 mile, circular. Ring of Laughter is one such and it's had 292 visitors. Not bad going.
It's not fashionable to say you go geocaching for the numbers, but that is a part of it for me and many others. And it's a driver that's taken me to some very interesting pieces of countryside.
My purpose in asking this question was to guage others' opinions and discuss it, because Dartmoor is surrounded by circular trails yet there are very few on the moor itself, and I wanted to know if there was some particular reason. Sorry it confused you.

Hi guys,
It's been (another) long time for a free pattern to appear, but don't be upset with me: I've been trying to create a new nice darling for you my dear readers!
I just want to give you a peek on my new design: the flounce hem dress! I have been working on it for a while now and is getting to the final stage of grading it. So be patient, there will be a little more time before you can sew this nice dress.
Just look at the 3D simulation I've created here. Do you think it's worth the wait?
I am now a big big fan of CAD, more specifically, Optitex 2D/3D Pattern Making Software. It's a wonderful, smart and efficient software that any designers will need to create their designs without having to go through countless trials and errors before coming to a final product. It saves me big time!
Just wait for me, I will give you this dress pattern in the near future.

[Video] Dave Patten "Let Me Introduce My Band" (Dir: Dave Patten)
The amount of talent Dave Patten has is actually unmeasurable. We're talking about an artist that not only directs his own videos but a vocalist who produces and writes all of his music. Dave Patten directed a few music videos for Meek Mill and they're both from Philadelphia so it's no surprise that he's part of the DreamChasers team. Dave's been in the game since 2006, dropping visual after visual, and as a new fan I'm quite impressed. His lyrics are extremely relatable and his sound doesn't stay the same, so you never know what you're going to expect other than quality & passion. Be sure to listen to his new single, "Let Me Introduce My Band" and watch out for his album later this year.

New recipe for speed – Add a little dead weight (safety wheel); remove a little risk; and pedal like hell.
I don't know what category this would be placed in. I'm still in the odd-ball category. Dan, does the unlimited category include one wheel rides with a spare in the air?
Anyway, after a little speed work on the Tammany Trace (the train track turned bke path with many stop signs), I went down to New Orleans to test my 25k time at Audubon Park where there's a loop with a dedicated bke/roller blade lane. Many obstacles to negotiate, but it's a loop, about 1.5 miles, I think. After reaching the 1-hour point and slowing to a cool down pace for a couple of miles (still on one wheel of course) I found myself near the 30k point with a little bit of a second wind, so I continued on to the 40k mark to see what the time would look like. My posterior didn't appreciate the idea. And it wasn't a very decent time due to the long cool down, but it's a start. The next time I try for 40, I'll go out slower and concentrate on the longer distance from the start. After I install the Azonics seat and see how it works.
10k----------------22:38 (avg 26.51kph)
15mile/24.12k------56:09 (avg 25.77kph)
25k----------------58:12 (avg 25.77kph)
1-hour distance----25.75k (avg – I'm not gonna type it twice)
40k----------------1:41:30 (avg 23.64kph)
heart rate----------avg 180bpm (this is excellent exercise)
cadence estimate—90-100 (counted periodically when I got bored)
butt pain-----------much
With all of the traffic (b*kes; roller bladers; and sometimes cars, pedestrians, children and dogs that wander into the lane accidentally) I won't be trying to repeat this without the front wheel at Audubon Park. The first time out (last week), at about 45 minutes into the ride (while running 27kph) someone decided to run the only stop sign in the park, just as I reached the intersection. That was the third time I thanked myself for installing the forks and front wheel. After slamming the front end down, jamming on the brakes, and swerving toward the rear of the vehicle, I missed the apparently blind young lady by about an inch. Without the front wheel, I would have been in serious trouble. And the same thing happened two days later in Mandeville.
Am I invisible on this thing?
This high-speed one-wheeling may not be a good idea. It requires too much restraint when one nearly gets killed by another's carelessness.
And some would say I'm the reckless one. Well, maybe more than some.
