MONTPELIER, Vt. — Gov. Phil Scott is asking residents to take personal responsibility to help reduce a continuing spike in active COVID-19 infections, a surprise given Vermont's position as the nation's most-vaccinated state. Vermont has seen 921 new infections and four new deaths over the last four days. Scott said the cycle of the delta variant of the virus, which arrived later in Vermont than in southern states, may explain part of the stubborn surge in active cases. Scott said he hopes cases wane in a week or two. In the meantime, Scott is again asking residents to get a booster

Their "vaccine" is worthless to protect against the virus, it has become very clear. It is starting to look like you are more likely to get the virus if you got The Shot.

Change the word "despite" in the headline to "because of" and we have an accurate headline.

I got the MMR as a kid. I no longer worry about getting measles mumps or rubella. THAT is a vaccine. Right now, all that is available is a FLU SHOT. I don’t get flu shots. Ineffective ones don’t stop the flu spread, they increase the vectors for variants, and they make the infected shed their viruses more rapidly, and in greater number. I know WE here all knew that, but what happened to the rest of the world?

LOS ANGELES - Southern California's Los Angeles and Long Beach ports handle the most ocean cargo of any ports in the United States, but are some of the least efficient in the world, according to a ranking by the World Bank and IHS Markit. In a review of 351 container ports around the globe, Los Angeles was ranked 328, behind Tanzania's Dar es Salaam and Alaska's Dutch Harbor.

MONETA, Va. — On a sunny Thursday morning in September, a few dozen high school students gathered for a weekly chapel service at what used to be the Bottom’s Up Bar & Grill and is now the chapel and cafeteria of Smith Mountain Lake Christian Academy. Five years ago, the school in southwest Virginia had just 88 students between kindergarten and 12th grade. Its finances were struggling, quality was inconsistent by its own admission, and classes met at a local Baptist church. Now, it has 420, with others turned away for lack of space.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Parents are demanding answers following allegations that teachers forced middle school students in Colorado Springs to tape masks to their faces. Academy School District 20 has said it will investigate the claims. More than 100 students and staff members are being interviewed about the situation. A picture of a sixth-grader from Chinook Trail Middle School with a mask taped to her face made the rounds on social media over the weekend.

WILMINGTON — With the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach now running 24/7 operations, a new problem has occurred. Many of the shipping containers that spent weeks onboard ships waiting to be unloaded are now being dumped in nearby neighborhoods once they’re emptied. Sonia Cervantes lives along Anaheim Street, where UCTI Trucking Company is located. The company’s lot only has a capacity for 65 containers so the additional containers now line up along Anaheim Street in front of some people’s homes. “It’s a bunch of neighbors that are very upset because it’s a non-stop situation,” said Cervantes. “I would

Port-au-Prince, Haiti — Desperate efforts continued on Tuesday to save a group of missionaries, most of them Americans, being held for ransom by a criminal gang in Haiti. FBI agents were working with local authorities in the tiny Caribbean nation to find the 16 U.S. nationals and one Canadian who were kidnapped on Saturday. Haiti's justice minister said the gang was asking for $1 million each — $17 million dollars in total — to release the missionaries, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal. The missionaries, from an Ohio-based Christian organization, were abducted just outside the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince. CBS

The total number of ships at anchor and in holding areas, waiting to dock and unload at the ports, also hit a fresh record on Monday as 100 vessels floated off the shore. 97 of these ships are container ships

West Virginia Republicans are speaking out after an Illinois Democrat said their entire state is "an irrelevant part" of the national economy. Rep.

Despite President Joe Biden's goal to move cargo around the clock in Los Angeles ports, the gates remained shut on Sunday with a smattering of open traffic on Saturday. The nationwide port schedule app Pier Trucker showed terminals that looked like ghost towns Sunday with barren traffic lanes as additional cargo ships continue to pile up along the coastlines of Los Angeles and Orange counties. On Friday, 88 ships were waiting to dock at either Long Beach or Los Angeles harbors — 10 additional ships from the last count on Oct. 13, according to the Marine Exchange of Southern California.

Catsimatidis, who is the president of Gristedes and D'Agostino Foods, discussed his concerns about inflation and supply chain issues on FOX Business’ "Mornings with Maria," and warned companies like Nabisco, Pepsi and Coke will begin to prioritize products and raise prices in order to get ahead. "I see food prices going up tremendously," he told Maria Bartiromo. "[CEOs] want to be ahead of the curve and the way they're doing it is they're dropping all promotions. They are dropping low-moving items."

The “Halloween” star, 62, admitted on Wednesday that “learning new terminology and words” has been a challenge at times, but she is determined to put in the work for Ruby. “It’s speaking a new language,” she told People. “I am new at it. I am not someone who is pretending to know much about it. And I’m going to blow it, I’m going to make mistakes. I would like to try to avoid making big mistakes.”

Some of them do admit that — when they’re cornered. I’m thinking of Dan Crenshaw being confronted by an election truther at a fundraiser in August and telling the guy that he was kidding himself if he believed there was such widespread fraud that it flipped the result in multiple states. There’s a cohort of hardcore populists within the House GOP whose loyalty to Trump is such that they’ll eagerly parrot any conspiracy theory he likes but most GOP reps who are asked about this tend to mumble something noncommittal about “election integrity” and “unanswered questions” before changing the subject.

Fox News host Neil Cavuto, 63, has contracted a breakthrough case of the coronavirus despite reportedly being heavily immunocompromised, raising concerns over his health given the recent passing from COVID of Colin Powell, 84, who too had been vaccinated and immunocompromised. Cavuto, who hosts shows on both Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network, remains optimistic over his fate nevertheless. In a statement issued to the media Tuesday, he touted his decision to get vaccinated as surefire proof that “I’m surviving this.”“While I’m somewhat stunned by this news, doctors tell me I’m lucky as well.
