Asked what her threshold is for reinstating a mask mandate, Lightfoot said, “Well, look, if we get back into an area where we feel like we’re in a red zone, which we are working very hard to make sure that our daily case rate is below 200, if we start to see consistently going over that, we’re not only going to look at a mask mandate, but we’re going to look back at other tools that we’ve been compelled to use.
5. More recently, the FDA has targeted his claims about COVID-19. In February, the agency sent Mercola a warning letter about vitamins and other products that his websites or social media accounts have directed customers to purchase, indicating that they’re “intended to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose, or cure COVID-19 in people.”
On Sunday, Biles received a 6.7 D score for a floor routine that includes two elements named after her. Judges dinged her for sloppy — again, by her standards — performance, giving her a 7.733, for a 14.133 total, second-best of the day behind Italy’s Vanessa Ferrari.
Athletes won’t do much mingling with locals at these pandemic-restricted Olympics. If they did, they might not find their body art as welcome. Tattoos remain stigmatized in Japan, where those with them are commonly banned from beaches, gyms, pools and elsewhere around Japan.
They took care of business over the weekend against the worst team in baseball, as they should even for a struggling team. On-field results can only distract so much, though, as the trade deadline draws closer with the Cubs (49-51) sitting in fourth place in the National League Central, 9 games back of first place.

Turning to the slot receiver position, if the Bears are going to become more potent offensively, they’re going to need more productive playmakers. Former second-round pick Anthony Miller was cast off to the Houston Texans, and since his arrival Damiere Byrd has been the logical candidate to join Allen Robinson and Darnell Mooney. Byrd had a career-high 47 receptions for 604 yards last season with the New England Patriots and has the quickness and speed to excel in the slot. Byrd could emerge as a nice signing. He won’t be the only option in three-receiver sets, and that’s where it is interesting because playing time will be up for grabs. Byrd should emerge ahead of Riley Ridley, Javon Wims, Marquise Goodwin, Dazz Newsome and others, but keep an eye out for someone excelling in the next several weeks. It’s also worth noting Byrd is probably best working in the slot, which is where Miller operated.
What I mean is that ideally, you would be able to show compassion and concern toward a fellow human being without affirming his reprehensible actions. This is a heavy lift, because others in your circle are not only judging him, but — depending on your behavior — will also judge you. (Your wife, for instance, might judge you harshly for even being in this man’s presence.)
“He’s rested,” La Russa said of Hendriks. “If he wasn’t rested, you couldn’t do it. But still, that’s one reason we left Michael in there: Every out you could buy in the eighth is one less for (Hendriks) to get. But as soon as one guy got on, he was going to be in there. And the key is he was rested. Without that, not possible.”
