People are flocking to America's biggest pizza chains in the pandemic, and that should be great news for Domino's. But just as Covid-19 has people buying more pizza, it has led to higher costs for everything from cleaning supplies to worker pay. Ingredient costs have also fluctuated: The company said cheese prices have been swinging wildly during the pandemic, going from an all-time low at one point to an all-time high last quarter. And that's meant Domino's increased sales have muted profits that disappointed Wall Street. The pizza chain's stock dropped about 7% Thursday after it announced its earnings for the third quarter. The company reported a profit of $ 2.49 a share, falling short of the $ 2.79 that Wall Street had expected. That's despite sales surging almost 18% in the quarter. "The total impact from safety and cleaning equipment, enhanced sick pay and other compensation for our team members and support for our franchisees and our communities was $ 11 million," CFO Stuart Levy said during an analyst call discussing results. The company expects those costs to remain for the duration of the pandemic. The ultimate quarantine food Although the company's earnings were lower than expected in the latest quarter, analysts are optimistic about Domino's long-term potential. Pizza is the ultimate quarantine food - it travels well, can feed an entire family, and is kept as leftovers. That has been particularly good for Domino's. "They to me have stood out among all the chains," said Morningstar restaurant analyst R.J. Hottovy. Over the years, Domino's made a number of decisions that have set it up for success now, Hottovy said. Even more than other pizza chains, it invested in digital infrastructure. The chain has rolled out unique features like "hotspots," which let people order pizza to the beach and other outdoor locations, and has tested out self-driving delivery cars. It's also using a "fortressing" strategy, Hottovy said. That's when chains set up numerous locations in one area, so that most residents are within delivery range of a Domino's (DPZ). And new menu items, like chicken taco pizzas, cheeseburger pizzas and chicken wings, have done well. "Our wings and our two new specialty pizzas have been very well received by our customers," said CEO Richard Allison during Thurday's call. "You haven't seen us promote wings because we're selling all the wings that we can get our hands on today," he added. Last year, Domino's held 27% of the market among large pizza chains, according to foodservice data firm Technomic. Pizza Hut was next on the list at 21%, followed by Little Caesars at 15% and Papa John's at 10%. Charles Winship, senior research analyst at Technomic, said that the firm projects that both Domino's and Papa John's will gain market share this year. But Technomic expects Domino's to remain in the top spot. The chain is "building up a pretty good lead over the rest of the category," said Winship. Papa John's (PZZA) has seen sales jump during the pandemic at an even higher rate than Domino's. In the three months that ended on September 27, sales at North American stores open for at least a year popped nearly 24% compared to the same period last year. But Papa John's was still recovering from its dismal 2018 last year. In the third quarter of 2019, Papa John's had positive comparable sales growth for the first time in two years. But Domino's isn't the only one facing some issues related to the pandemic. In an August call discussing its second quarter earnings, Papa John's mentioned that labor costs ate into its profit.

As President Donald Trump stood on a White House balcony Saturday - spewing mistruths about his opponent plan for policing and claiming the coronavirus is "disappearing" while hundreds of people watched from below - it was clear that his illness has taught him very little and he will continue to endanger Americans until Election Day. There was a chance for a strategic pivot by the President after he contracted Covid-19 that would have helped him shore up his flagging approval ratings on the handling of the virus. After learning a great deal about coronavirus, as he claimed during his stay at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, he could have chosen a path of responsibility by using his platform to educate the public about the risks of the virus at a time when US cases are surging and doctors fear that the nation is entering a second wave. But nine days after he announced his coronavirus diagnosis - and hours before his physician said he is no longer considered "a transmission risk to others" but did not say he had tested negative - Trump chose his familiar tactics of denial, risk and ignorance . Two weeks after one super-spreader event in the White House Rose Garden, I have held another on the South Lawn with no social distancing. This time, it was before an audience of Black and Latino Americans, groups who have been disproportionately harmed by the pandemic. Rather than mitigating risk, Trump is planning at least three campaign rallies next week in Florida, Pennsylvania and Iowa, stating Saturday, "We are starting very, very big with our rallies and with our everything" as he again threw caution to the wind. In his speech from the White House balcony and during his interviews with right wing outlets like the Rush Limbaugh radio show on Friday, he embraced the only political strategy he knows - playing to his base, rather than attempting to broaden his appeal, as his campaign spirals toward Election Day. He still appears either unwilling or unable to see the huge drag that the public's lack of confidence in his handling of the pandemic is having on his election prospects. A Reuters / Ipsos poll released this week showed only 37% of Americans approved of Trump's handling of the pandemic, while 59% disapproved. And the Pew Research Center found that Biden had a 17-point advantage over Trump when registered voters were asked who could better handle the public health impact of the coronavirus outbreak. The President continued downplaying Covid-19 on Saturday, referring to it with his racist language as the "China virus" and claiming the US will "defeat it," a day after he falsely claimed the experimental monoclonal antibody cocktail that he received from Regeneron was "to cure." "Science, medicine will eradicate the 'China virus' once and for all," Trump said Saturday, noting flare-ups in Europe and Canada, but not mentioning the rising number of cases in the United States. "A lot of flareups, but it's going to disappear, it is disappearing and vaccines are going to help." Trump's physician, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Sean Conley, said in a memo about the President's health Saturday evening that he is "now at day 10 from symptom onset, fever-free for well over 24 hours and all symptoms improved." "The assortment of advanced diagnostic tests obtained reveal there is no longer evidence of actively replicating virus," Conley said, but he did not explain what "advanced diagnostic tests" the President received. And the White House still will not say when Trump last tested negative before he announced his positive diagnosis early on October 2, which is important context for knowing when he was contagious. Conley has in the past seemed willing to bend to the political desires of a President eager not to appear ill and to quickly return to the trail. This latest White House memo, coming just ahead of his planned rallies, continues to be opaque with the medical details about Trump's condition, leaving many questions about Trump's current condition unanswered. On Sunday, Trump claimed to be immune from the virus, even though there is no evidence that people are immune if they have been infected once, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which specifically cautions people against assuming they are immune. "A total and complete sign off from White House Doctors yesterday. That means I can't get it (immune), and can't give it. Very nice to know !!!" Trump wrote, which earned a warning label from Twitter for violating the platform's rules about "spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to Covid-19." Alarming US coronavirus trends While the White House says the President's health is improving, doctors and public health officials are alarmed by the recent rise in Covid-19 cases, a trend that could accelerate as more Americans move indoors and the weather grows colder. The latest forecast from the influential coronavirus model from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington School of Medicine projects that there could be nearly 395,000 US coronavirus deaths by February 1, 2021. More than 214,000 Americans have already died, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. "We are all seeing increasing numbers of Covid-19 patients who are coming into our ERs, who are getting really sick, requiring hospitalization and even intensive care," Dr. Megan Ranney, an emergency physician with Brown Emergency Medicine, told CNN's Erica Hill on "Newsroom" Saturday. "We are all deeply afraid that this is the beginning of that dreaded second wave." When asked Saturday whether Trump should be resuming campaign rallies, Democratic nominee Joe Biden said the President should make "clear he is not a spreader, like Dr. (Anthony) Fauci said," referring to a recent statement from the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases that Trump's Rose Garden ceremony for Amy Coney Barrett, his Supreme Court nominee, was clearly a "super spreader." "Secondly, I think it's important that he makes it clear to all the people they should be socially distanced," Biden said on the tarmac in Delaware as he headed to a campaign event in Erie, Pennsylvania. "They should be on the lawn, that's fine, but in fact, they should be socially distanced and wearing masks - that's the only responsible thing to do."

Here we show you a compilation of the curiosities of the animals that surround us. These curiosities are very interesting because they show us unusual facts that perhaps you did not even imagine. Animals A dog smiles to ask his owner to give him some affection, according to veterinarian John Bradshaw. Although dogs smile that does not mean that they are always happy. It can even be a sign that they feel anxious and need some reassurance. A chimpanzee can become depressed and even die of grief over the death of a loved one, perhaps its mother. As an example we have the sad story of Flint and his mother Flo. When his mother died in 1972, Flint could not cope with life without his mother. He stopped eating and interacting with other chimpanzees and showed signs of clinical depression. Soon after, his immune system weakened so much that he died at the age of 8 1/2. Crickets, unlike mammals, are not capable of self-regulating their body temperature so they are very sensitive to changes in temperature. When the temperature rises, the chirps of the crickets increase their frequency that is able to calculate the outside temperature. How? Following this simple formula: We count the number of songs per minute, divide it by five and subtract nine. At first glance these animals appear to be a strange mix between a deer and a mouse. Although they share a suborder with deer (ruminantia), they are not considered "deer or true deer." They have their own family called tragúlidos. Although they are not deadly poisonous, dragonflies (anisoptera) occupy a privileged place among predators. The insect reaches 95% of all edible things in front of its eyes, making it the deadliest animal on the planet Like elephants, butterflies have a proboscis which is a long tube-shaped appendage on their head that allows them to absorb liquid for food. The largest horse in history was 1.98 meters tall and weighed 1,450 kg, his name was Brooklyn Supreme, he lived from 1928 to 1948. Ants don't have lungs. They breathe through small holes on the sides called spiracles. The smallest snake in the world is the Tetracheilostoma carlae, the species measures only 10 centimeters, they feed on termites and larvae. The Barbados thread snake is not poisonous. Armadillos have a very strong shell. In fact, a Texas man was hospitalized after he shot an armadillo and the bullet ricocheted and hit his jaw.

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is a two-seater 2-door dihedral super sports car, produced by the German manufacturer Mercedes-Benz from 2003 to 2009. Its current price is around £ 300,000 or $ 495,000. Features The SLR has a center-front V8 engine positioned well behind the front axle of 5439 cm³ (5.4 liters), with double overhead camshaft (DOHC) timing for each cylinder bank and 3 valves per cylinder ( 24 in total), equipped with a Lysholm-type volumetric compressor with intercooler, which delivers a maximum power of 626 hp (617 HP; 460 kW) at 6,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 780 Nm (575 lbft) at 3250-5500 rpm. It is similar to that of the "55 AMG" versions of various Mercedes models. The bodywork has two doors that open upwards, two seats and a little better standard equipment than, for example, an E-Class. Technically, the most peculiar thing about the SLR McLaren is the frame, which consists of a carbon fiber part and, bolted to it, an aluminum structure that holds the engine and the front suspension. It has a normal suspension, albeit made of aluminum, with coil springs and gas shock absorbers. It is not pneumatic as in the E-Class, nor does it have the body control system (ABC). It can have three types of wheels: There are two wheels to choose from without surcharge, with 245/40 18-inch (45.7 cm) front tires and 295/35 18-inch (45.7 cm) rear tires. In addition, there is an optional third wheel in a turbine design with 245/35 19-inch (48.3 cm) front and 295/30 19-inch (48.3 cm) rear tires. According to Mercedes, the SLR McLaren is "a contemporary interpretation of stylistic elements of the original SLR, with design details borrowed from Formula 1 in 2003." Its disc brakes are carbon-ceramic vented, capable of maintaining their effectiveness up to a temperature of 1000 ° C (1832 ° F). The front ones are 370 mm (14.6 inches) in diameter with eight-piston calipers, while the rear ones are 360 mm (14.2 inches) with four-piston calipers. It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds, from 0 to 200 km / h (124 mph) in 9.9 seconds and from 0 to 300 km / h (186 mph) in 30, 6 seconds. Its top speed exceeds 334 km / h (208 mph) .1 Weighs 1693 kg (3732 lb) (DIN) .1 Its body has a Roadster version since September 2007. Body and structure Its length of 4656 mm (183.3 in) is similar to that of a CLK with 4638 mm (182.6 in). They also have a similar wheelbase: 2700 mm (106.3 in) for the SLR and 2715 mm (106.9 in) for the CLK. The width 1908 mm (75.1 in) and the height 1261 mm (49.6 in) are similar to those of other mid-front-engine sports cars, such as the Aston Martin Vanquish or the Ferrari 575M Maranello. The aerodynamic study is made to ensure good stability at high speed, rather than a low coefficient of penetration. Consequently, the SLR McLaren has 0.374 Cx, but has negative Cz lift coefficients: 0.050 at the front axle and 0.089 at the rear. Two of the methods to get the air to press the car against the ground are a nearly flat bottom and a movable rear wing. The bottom has deflectors that deflect part of the air and diffusers that accelerate it, to facilitate the flow of air in relation to the car. The rear wing starts to unfold from 95 km / h (59 mph) and increases its inclination automatically, or manually via a control on the dashboard. Mercedes-Benz refers to this spoiler as "airbrake" because, when the pressure in the brake circuit exceeds a certain limit, the spoiler takes its maximum inclination of 65 ° to provide an aerodynamic brake. The frame is made of carbon fiber and aluminum. The passenger and rear safety cell is made of carbon fiber. Inside this carbon fiber structure there are integrated metal elements to hold the rear axle. The front of the car, which forms the cradle of the engine and the supports for the front suspension, is made of aluminum. That structure is bolted to the carbon fiber one. Other methods of joining between the different pieces are glue and rivets. Ahead of the aluminum frame are two conical carbon fiber stringers joined by a cross member. These side members have the function of collapsing in the event of a frontal collision, slowing down the collision as much as possible. These stringers are manufactured in the same plant as the car, using procedures from the textile industry.

Exercise, a healthy diet and not smoking or drinking can help you live years longer even if you're struggling with other chronic medical conditions, according to a new study. While a healthy lifestyle has long been linked to a longer life span, there's been very little research to date on how lifestyle factors affect people with "multimorbidity" - living with two or more long-term mental or physical health conditions such as hypertension ( high blood pressure), asthma, cancer, depression, migraine, diabetes and angina. To find out, a team of UK researchers tracked 93,736 middle-aged adults who had two or more of 36 chronic conditions, for up to nine years. The team assessed four lifestyle factors: leisure-time physical activity, smoking, diet and alcohol consumption. A very healthy lifestyle, the researchers found, is associated with up to 6.3 years longer life for men and 7.6 years for women, regardless of the presence of multiple chronic conditions, compared with those given the lowest lifestyle score. Not smoking conferred the biggest benefit, with smokers at age 45 living five to six years less than non-smokers. Regular physical exercise was associated with living one to 2.5 years longer. The benefits of a healthy diet and lower alcohol intake were smaller and less certain. "More individuals are living with multiple chronic conditions, impacting their health and daily lives," said Yogini Chudasama, an epidemiologist and statistician at the Leicester Real World Evidence Unit at the University of Leicester's Diabetes Research Center. "We found a healthy lifestyle, in particular abstinence from smoking, increased life expectancy by as much as 7 years. Our study has important implications for the public's health, as we hope our findings have shown that it's never too late to make vital lifestyle changes , "she said in a press statement. For women with at least two chronic conditions, even an "unhealthy" score on the four lifestyle factors was associated with living 3.5 years longer when compared to people who were given a "very unhealthy" score. A "healthy" score was linked to a gain of 6.4 years and "very healthy" score was linked to a gain of 7.6 years. For men, the corresponding estimates were 1.5 years, 4.5 years and 6.3 years. However, the gain for those classed as "unhealthy" wasn't considered statistically significant by the researchers. In their analysis, the researchers said they accounted for individual factors like socioeconomic status, ethnicity and employment status. The study had some limitations, the researchers said: More than 95% of participants were white and they were more affluent than the general po[CENSORED]tion in the United Kingdom. It was an observational study and, as such, can only establish a link rather than cause. The most common conditions for men were hypertension, asthma, cancer, diabetes and angina, while for women they were hypertension, asthma, cancer, depression and migraine.

A defiant President Donald Trump resumed public events Saturday with a divisive speech at the White House, where he potentially put lives at risk once again, just nine days after he revealed his own Covid-19 diagnosis. After being sidelined from the campaign trail for more than a week, Trump leaned into his law-and-order message in a speech threaded with falsehoods that was clearly a campaign rally disguised as a White House event. Trump claimed that if the left gains power, they'll launch a crusade against law enforcement. Echoing his highly inaccurate campaign ads that suggest that Democratic nominee Joe Biden would defund 911 operations and have a "therapist" answer calls about crime, Trump falsely claimed that the left is focused on taking away firearms, funds and authority from police. With just three weeks to go until an election in which he's trailing badly in the polls, and millions of voters already voting, Trump is deploying familiar scare tactics. Biden has not made any proposals that would affect the ability to answer 911 calls. As CNN's Facts First has noted many times, Biden has repeatedly and explicitly opposed the idea of "defunding the police," and he has proposed a $ 300 million increase in federal funding for community policing. The event was purportedly aimed at Black and Latino Americans, who, he argued, are benefiting from his agenda. Attendees included members of a group known as "BLEXIT" that was founded by conservative firebrand Candace Owens to encourage African Americans to leave the Democratic Party. His speech, however, seemed clearly aimed at White suburbanites who are not sympathetic to the Black Lives Matter movement. The ignorance of Trump inviting a group of Black and Latino Americans, who have been disproportionately affected by the coronavirus, to an event at the White House at a time when he might still be contagious, was appalling to Dr. Jeremy Faust, an emergency physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital. "The images we are seeing are absolutely extraordinary," Faust said on CNN's "Newsroom" as attendees on the South Lawn did very little social distancing, with many not wearing masks. "To literally draw (Black and Latino activists) into the White House, to a hot zone, is extraordinarily inept in terms of public policy and public health ... If you believe nuclear power is safe, you don't go and have a picnic at Chernobyl the next day to prove that point. " The large gathering followed Trump's acknowledgment during a televised interview with Fox News Friday that he may have contracted the virus at one of the recent events at the White House. Trump gave an incomprehensible answer about his latest coronavirus test results Friday. "I haven't even found out numbers or anything yet, but I've been retested and I know I'm at either the bottom of the scale or free," Trump told Fox News' medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel on "Tucker Carlson Tonight. " "They test every couple of days, I guess, but it's really at a level now that's been great - great to see it disappear." CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta noted that the Fox interview offered very little clarity about Trump's level of contagion and said that if the President had a simple answer about testing negative, he would have given it: "They are being purposely vague on this , but I think they're trying to track his viral load, "Gupta said on" Cuomo Prime Time. " View Trump and Biden head-to-head polling Americans are still in the dark about the date of Trump's last negative test for Covid-19. But as Trump taped the Fox interview, he said he had stopped taking medicine eight hours earlier. But he also underscored the seriousness of his illness when he acknowledged that scans of his lungs in the hospital had shown congestion and that he took the steroid dexamethasone because it keeps "the swelling down of the lungs." White House doctors have not spoken directly to the press since Trump left Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Monday, and his doctor did not reveal his temperature in the latest statement on his vitals Thursday. Trump's physician, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Sean Conley, said in his Thursday statement that Saturday would be day 10 since Trump's diagnosis and based on unspecified tests that the team was conducting, "I fully anticipate the President's safe return to public engagements at that time." The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says on its website that patients with mild or moderate illness are infectious for up to 10 days, while those with "severe to critical illness" could remain infectious up until 20 days after the onset of symptoms. The medications that Trump received have suggested serious illness to many of the doctors interviewed by CNN. No evidence of change to White House protocols: Still, the President's illness does not appear to have changed the safety protocols adopted by the White House or Trump's campaign, even though Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease specialist, said on Friday that it's now clear that Trump's Rose Garden ceremony for his Supreme Court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, two weeks ago was a "superspreader event." "We had a super spreader event in the White House," Fauci told CBS News Radio on Friday. "It was in a situation where people were crowded together, they were not wearing masks. So the data speak for themselves." Attendees at Saturday's White House event must bring masks and will be subject to temperature checks, a source with knowledge of the planning told CNN. But while Trump said he may have contracted the virus at the White House, he made no mention of masks when Siegel asked him about the lessons he has learned from contracting the coronavirus. Cases are now rising in 28 states, and Friday marked a record number of new coronavirus cases worldwide - more than 350,000 in a single day, according to the World Health Organization. "They had some big events at the White House and perhaps there," he said when Siegel asked where he thought he contracted the virus. "I don't really know. Nobody really knows for sure. Numerous people have contracted it, but you know people have contracted it all over the world. It's highly contagious." Trump said his main takeaway from his illness was that Covid patients should seek medical treatment as soon as they detect possible symptoms. "I think the secret for me was I got there very early," Trump said during the Siegel interview, acknowledging that many Americans do not have the same level of medical care or access to doctors that he does. "I think going in early is a big factor in my case." But when it comes to preventing the spread of the disease, the White House still seems to be flouting basic public health precautions, with their Saturday protocol not looking much different from the September 26 Rose Garden event where at least 12 people who attended - including former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who was released from the hospital Saturday after a week-long stay - have contracted the virus, forcing the White House to empty out after aides went into quarantine.

Did you know that a baby has 94 more bones than an adult? Discover this and other surprising rarities Despite the fact that in recent years great discoveries have been made that have allowed us to better understand that perfect machine that is the human body, there are still many secrets that our body hides. Our body is a structure as complex as it is fascinating that throughout history has been the object of study for different branches of science. However, despite the fact that every day of our life we interact with our body, we are still far from knowing everything about it. Not only that, but almost everyone is unaware of most of the mysteries that science has managed to unravel about our body and how it works. We are so used to living with our body every day that we rarely stop to think about everything that happens in our body. However, scientists do not cease to be fascinated by its secrets. We tell you some of the most surprising curiosities and oddities. You may know some of them, but surely many others will surprise you. The thumb of either hand measures the same as the nose of the same body. Some people pass out after urinating due to a condition known as vasovagal syncope. It occurs because urination stimulates the vagus nerve, which can cause a drop in blood pressure and, as a result, fainting. It is impossible to swallow and breathe at the same time Five minutes is the time it takes the kidneys to filter all the blood in the body. A healthy body produces about three grams of IgA antibodies each day. In just 30 minutes the human body produces enough heat to boil 4 liters of water. It takes 60 seconds for a blood cell to travel through the entire human body. The small intestine measures just over 3 meters while the person is alive. When it dies it expands and can reach 7 or up to 8 meters long. Despite the eye color of the blood, we see the superficial veins bluish in color due to an optical effect produced by the skin. The right lung is slightly larger than the left because of the space the heart occupies. For every new kilogram of fat or muscle, the body creates 10 kilometers of new blood vessels. The human body produces 25 million new cells per second. The largest cells in the human body are eggs, while the smallest are sperm. Inside the human navel there are thousands of bacteria that form an ecosystem equivalent to the size of the Amazon. Human bones are just as strong as granite. A piece of bone the size of a matchbox can support up to 9 tons of weight. The electrical impulses emitted by the human brain are greater in one day than those emitted by all the phones on the planet together that same day. The atoms that make up our body are more than 13.7 billion years old since they are the same ones that were formed during the Big Bang. When a person blushes, their stomach lining also blushes. Human DNA is 50% identical to banana DNA Men's bodies make 10 million sperm every day. With that amount, it would take six months to repo[CENSORED]te the planet. If the human brain were a computer, it could perform 38,000 trillion operations per second. The human body has the same amount of hair as chimpanzees. But the vast majority of those hairs are useless and almost invisible. Along with the traditional five senses of hearing, sight, touch, smell and taste, the human being also has 15 other senses, including balance, temperature, pain, time, and also the internal sensations of suffocation, thirst and satiety. The human body can endure 7 days without food but only 2 without water. Of the 206 bones of an adult human, 52 are found in the feet. Women blink twice as much as men The stomach acids in our stomach are capable of disintegrating a metal blade. The tongue is composed of 16 individual muscles. No one is capable of committing suicide by holding their breath on their own The dust that we see against the light by the glare that enters through the windows, is made up of 90% of our dead cells. Every time we lift a foot we use 200 different muscles.

The McLaren 720S is a supercar, manufactured by McLaren since 2018. It inaugurates the second generation of the McLaren Automotive Super Series range, making effective the generational replacement of the McLaren MP4-12C, which later became known as McLaren 12C -shortly- and that it was later updated to be known as the McLaren 650S. The McLaren 720S is a completely new sports car, with a new platform and significant aerodynamic and technological improvements over its predecessors. It is McLaren Automotive's sportiest range, with permission from a McLaren P1 that was produced in limited series and a new, even more powerful and exclusive supercar, which has been announced as the successor to the McLaren F1. Among the mid-engined two-seater sports cars that aspire to rival the McLaren 720S coupe we find the Lamborghini Huracán and the Ferrari F8 Tributo. And a product that most likely can be measured from you to you, and even beat in certain aspects, its rivals Ferrari and Lamborghini. McLaren 720S exterior design: As for the most outstanding characteristics of the McLaren 720S we cannot forget its aerodynamics. McLaren has worked hard to achieve a sports car with excellent aerodynamic performance and also to cool its central engine - located immediately behind the cabin. Thus, the McLaren 720S dispenses with air intakes in the rear wings, but it has managed to cool the engine with air inlets that are based on channels through which the air flows to the rear. The McLaren 720S is also the premiere of a new, more elaborate aesthetic philosophy, but at the same time minimalist that would also mark the development of other models that would later reach the Woking catalog. See video of the McLaren 720S. McLaren 720S interior design: On board, it's the most technological McLaren we've seen yet, with advanced mobile instrumentation that pivots to suit the needs of road and track driving, so that the McLaren 720S always displays only the necessary information. See a video of the McLaren 720S instrumentation. The aesthetic is very sporty, omitting superfluous elements and using materials such as Alcantara and leather in an interior in which everything is focused on enjoying driving. The McLaren 720S debuts the new generation of the Proactive Chassis Control system that seeks the highest traction capacity in any environment. It also features the house's second generation carbon fiber monocoque chassis, the McLaren Monocage II. The McLaren 720S engine: The McLaren 720S's engine, as in its predecessor, is still a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that this time already reaches 720 hp. That's precisely where its name comes from. Beyond its power, it is especially interesting that we notice that on the scale it will only mark 1,283 kilograms, so that the relationship between power and weight is certainly very favorable. In terms of performance, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in just 2.9 seconds. As for the rest of the declared benefits, the McLaren 720S completes the 0 to 200 km / h in 7.8 seconds and reaches a peak of 341 km / h. Regarding its braking, it is capable of coming to a complete stop from 200 km / h in 4.6 seconds and covering 117 meters. McLaren 720S Spyder: the fastest convertible The McLaren 720s also has its own open-air version as was the case with its predecessor. In this case, the same 720 hp V8 propeller is used, with an increase in weight of about 49 kilograms throughout the retractable system that is capable of hooding and converting it in just 11 seconds. The use of light materials for the hood, as well as two folding safety arches that reduce the weight of the system by 6.8 kg compared to that of the 650S Spider, allow the set to reach 1,332 kilograms of unladen weight, the most light in its class according to the British manufacturer. The firm's engineers decided to review the carbon monocoque chassis in order to reinforce it so that the whole was not affected by the lack of a roof. The 4.0 V8 Twin-Turbo engine with 720 hp of maximum power and 770 Nm of torque remains unchanged. The performance of the 720S Spider to the 720S coupé remains very even: acceleration 0-100 km / h in 2.9 seconds, 0-200 km / h in 7.9 seconds (7.8 for the coupe). To this is added a maximum speed of 325 km / h driving without a roof and 341 km / h with the roof closed. McLaren 765LT: flavored with LongTail The McLaren 765LT is the most radical and performance version of the 720S, using its base, but deciding to completely renew each one of the body panels, lighter and more aerodynamic. This limited edition of only 765 units also has this figure as the power delivered by the V8 engine: a 4.0 V8 biturbo that offers a total power of 765 hp and a maximum torque of 800 Nm, associated in this case with a gearbox of seven relationships. The image also changes and as the initials LT point out, it is a LongTail body, similar to that of the GT's that competed for glory at Le Mans during the nineties. The exhaust outlets are repositioned with what are now four tails that start from the top of the rear, just under the retractable spoiler. Aerodynamics have also been improved, gaining no less than 25% lift at high speeds over the McLaren 720S. Its performance reaches a new level and it is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km / h in 2.8 seconds and, above all, it is capable of reaching 200 km / h from standstill in just 7.2 seconds.

Eating when feeling stressed has become a reality for many of us during these unsettling days, even among people who don't usually reach for food when feeling anxious. Whether your stress stems from anxiety regarding your children attending school in person, concern about getting sick as we spend more time indoors this fall, the ongoing fight for social justice or a not-so-distant US presidential election, it all makes sense that we 're stressed. Uncertainty is not a favorite human emotion. Food can be comforting, and there is nothing wrong with that, experts say. Sometimes you might turn to food intentionally, as it can be soothing. Other times, you might be craving something other than food but find yourself impulsively reaching for sweets or mindlessly nibbling on chips. At mealtimes, you may simply wish to figure out what it is you want to eat based on how you are feeling. That's where the hunger meter - a tool to help create space between you and the fridge or kitchen cabinet - can come in handy. By taking a sacred pause and asking yourself where you are on the hunger meter, you can increase your awareness, which can allow you to make an informed decision about eating. And it can be especially helpful if impulsive or stress-related eating has become more frequent. "The hunger meter is one of our most helpful tools for getting back to what the body already knows how to do, in case you've found yourself off path and off in the weeds a bit during this stressful time," said Signe Darpinian, a certified eating disorders specialist and the coauthor of "No Weigh! A Teen's Guide to Body Image, Food, and Emotional Wisdom." "There is a lot of collective anxiety at this time, which can lend itself to more emotional eating, which makes perfect sense," Darpinian said via email. "But feeding a body that's not asking to be fed on a regular basis can lead to preoccupation and more emotional headspace than what is ideal." Instead, when you create a pause to become aware of what you are doing, that awareness in and of itself is a very powerful motivator for change if you perform a particular behavior no longer serves you, explained Wendy Sterling, registered dietitian and coauthor of " How to Nourish Your Child Through an Eating Disorder "and Darpinian's co-author on" No Weigh!

Democratic senators are pressing Judge Amy Coney Barrett to promise to sit out any Supreme Court election dispute between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden. Barrett has eluded their requests and made no commitment. Yet with controversies over state ballot practices escalating and the possibility of a replay of the 2000 Bush v. Gore ordeal in the air, the topic is sure to surface at Barrett's Senate confirmation hearings next week. Trump has pointed to the November 3 election as a reason for seeking swift Senate confirmation of Barrett, a federal appeals court judge who would be his third appointee to the nine-member bench. The Republican incumbent has said he believes the Supreme Court could ultimately decide whether he is the victor over Biden. "I think this will end up at the Supreme Court," Trump said about the possibility of an intractable ballot controversy. "And I think it's very important that we have nine justices." In a recent CNN poll, more than half (56%) of the Americans surveyed said they think Barrett should recuse herself from cases on the presidential election; 34% said the opposite. Opinions divided largely by party: 82% of Democrats; 53% of independents and 32% of Republicans said Barrett should promise to recuse herself from cases about the election. Supreme Court practice leaves it to individual justices to decide when to recuse themselves from cases. In her recent questionnaire to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Barrett noted that federal ethics law covering lower court judges is not binding on the Supreme Court but said she would look to it, as other justices have. The law requires judges to disqualify themselves when their "impartiality might reasonably be questioned." Rarely do Supreme Court justices sit out cases and typically only when they have a financial stake or family connection to the dispute. As Democrats have pounded away at a possible conflict of interest for a Justice Barrett, law professors are divided on the issue. "I agree that justices can sit in cases that are of great consequence to the appointing president," New York University law professor Stephen Gillers told CNN, but added: "That's not this situation. Here, Barrett would be asked to decide whether Trump will keep his job after Trump gave Barrett his job just weeks earlier while publicly anticipating her vote in his favor. " But Ross Garber, who teaches at Tulane Law School, is of the opposite mind, saying Barrett need not recuse herself because she would already have lifetime tenure and "no stake at all in the outcome of the election." Garber added, "I'd go so far as to say she has a duty to sit and hear any elections cases that come before her." Rules and the history of recusals Supreme Court practice rests on a presumption that justices can be impartial even in thorny, politically charged cases. In December 2011, Chief Justice John Roberts addressed the subject in his year-end report, as some partisan advocates were calling for recusals related to the court's first consideration of the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act. Referring to the dictate that judges must sit out cases when their impartiality might "reasonably be questioned," Roberts said the standard focuses the "inquiry on the perspective of a reasonable person who is knowledgeable about the legal process and familiar with the relevant facts." Roberts' remarks came as various activists contended two justices should not take part in the momentous health-care case: Clarence Thomas, whose wife, Virginia, had been a strong opponent of the law, and Elena Kagan, who had worked in the Obama administration as it the act was being passed. "I have complete confidence in the capability of my colleagues to determine when recusal is warranted," Roberts wrote, without naming any justices. "They are jurists of exceptional integrity and experience whose character and fitness have been examined through a rigorous appointment and confirmation process. I know that they give careful consideration to any recusal questions that arise in the course of their judicial duties." Roberts also noted that a recusal could leave the nine-member court shorthanded. "(I) fa Justice withdraws from a case, the Court must sit without its full membership. A Justice accordingly cannot withdraw from a case as a matter of convenience or simply to avoid controversy. Rather, each Justice has an obligation to the court to be sure of the need to recuse before deciding to withdraw from a case. " The decisions of Supreme Court justices on whether to recuse, unlike such determinations of lower court judges, are not subject to review. But they can stir controversy, as when the late Justice Antonin Scalia decided to participate in a 2004 dispute that involved then-Vice President Dick Cheney, with whom Scalia had just taken a duck-hunting trip to Louisiana. Scalia and Cheney, old friends who often socialized together, flew to Louisiana on Air Force Two. The Supreme Court case to be heard soon after centered on an energy task force over which Cheney presided. Scalia rejected a recusal request from one of the parties, saying, "Since I do not believe my impartiality can reasonably be questioned, I do not think it would be proper for me to recuse." "The vice president and I were never in the same blind, and never discussed the case," he also wrote in a 21-page response to the recusal request. Referring to the free air flight down to Louisiana, Scalia added, "If it is reasonable to think that a Supreme Court justice can be bought so cheap, the nation is in deeper trouble that I imagined."

The Rolls-Royce Ghost is the smallest luxury saloon made by the British firm Rolls-Royce, a body located just below the most stately and expensive Rolls-Royce Phantom. It is a vision that aims to offer a more exclusive image of the luxury sedans in the F segment, sedans such as the Mercedes S-Class, the Audi A8, the BMW 7 Series or the Lexus LS. (See buying guide for the most expensive cars on the market.) The name Ghost is a name with a long history in the Rolls-Royce family and that has known different models throughout the history of the brand. For this generation, Rolls-Royce has sought to maintain the essence of luxury, comfort and distinction of the brand's models, but betting on a more current approach where we find better dynamic behavior or greater possibilities in technology and infotainment. On a technical level, the Rolls-Royce Ghost only allows you to opt for a 6.6 V12 Twin-Turbo engine of BMW origin with a power of 570 hp. This propeller is associated with an 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox with rear-wheel drive, a transmission that also has the particularity of being GPS-guided to always work at the optimum gear ratio according to the ororaphy of the terrain. Despite the power of its engine and the improvements in its chassis to provide a more dynamic behavior, the Rolls-Royce Ghost's maxim is to prioritize ride comfort over all things, which is why it offers a level of isolation and quality of tread among the best in its category. The interior of the Ghost exudes classicism and quality in superlative terms, combining with technology in aspects such as the multimedia system, but always giving priority to that classic vehicle feeling. Compared to models like the Bentley Flying Spur, the main rival that also offers a fairly classic image in its cabin, the Ghost bases all its aesthetics on that concept of a luxury vehicle of yesteryear, built in a traditional way and always respecting the lines of its predecessors despite having a model developed and commercialized in the 21st century. The Rolls-Royce Ghost has a body variant called the Extended Wheel Base (EWB) that adds 17 extra inches of wheelbase to increase the available legroom in the rear seats. This EWB body reaches 5.57 meters, thus serving as an alternative to all the extended wheelbase variants offered by its most direct rivals.

If you're not comfortable heading to a gym to use the stair-climbing machine, one area of the body that you can focus on with no equipment whatsoever is your butt. Gluteal amnesia and "dead butt syndrome" are both terms used to describe what happens when your glute muscles forget how to activate and therefore your hips, low back and legs take the brunt of your movements that require your butt for proper form. In fact, experts say that sitting for too long can cause this tightness and weakness in the glutes. Taking frequent breaks from sitting and teaching the glutes how to activate through targeted exercises can help. Your bum is composed of three muscles: gluteus maximus, gluteus medius and gluteus minimis. The gluteus maximus is the biggest muscle in the body, so traditionally in high-intensity interval training, also known as HIIT workouts, or in workouts focused on weight loss, working the butt is a key component to burn more calories and fat. Furthermore, developing glute muscles can assist in low back pain, improved lower body strength and proper pelvic alignment. Strong glutes help prevent knee injuries during running and lifting exercises, and also support the low back during certain motions. From an appearance standpoint, the red carpet is always buzzing with celebrities like Jennifer "J.Lo" Lopez and Kim Kardashian, who show off their developed derrieres in designer gowns. Whether your motivation to tone and tighten your butt is functional, appearance-focused, or both, this five-minute butt routine will get your backside stronger in no time. While the gluteus maximus is the biggest butt muscle, minimis and medius have the important job of helping to stabilize and round out the butt as a whole. These smaller muscles also contribute to the round shape of the backside and strength in the lower body. In just five minutes with only five exercises, you can tighten and tone your butt as well as the upper thighs and hamstrings. Perform each of these exercises slowly, and connect your breath to movement. Exhale through the mouth as you exert more effort, like when you press up from a position, and inhale through the nose as you move to the position, like when you step into a side lunge. This five-minute butt workout can be done every other day to allow the muscles a day of recovery and time to build. If completing 10 repetitions feels easy, you can increase to 15 repetitions or do two rounds of 10 repetitions.

Calling for his first interview since being hospitalized, President Donald Trump took an hour-long walk that turned into vicious and sexist attacks on the Democrats who stood up to him, desperate claims against old enemies, and dangerous boasts about his apparent recovery. of the coronavirus. Trump's appearance did little to reverse the impressions of a candidate who denies the country's health situation or is lost in a web of old grievances and comes just weeks before a presidential election in which polls currently show him very much. behind. He called Fox Business from the White House residence, where he continues to take a steroid as part of his Covid treatment. Trump, whose voice sounded husky over the phone, had no events on his schedule Thursday; It was the third day in a row since he returned from the hospital that his public schedule seemed empty. In White House videos released Wednesday and Thursday, he looked upbeat, but at times he seemed out of breath and wearing a lot of makeup. The president said he was eager to get back into the campaign and insisted the virus was no longer spreading, even though it was diagnosed only a week ago. But he said he would refuse to participate in a virtual debate with Joe Biden, saying it would be easier for the moderator to interrupt him. He suggested he may have contracted the virus at a reception he held for Gold Star families at the White House last Sunday in lieu of the unmasked ceremony in which his Supreme Court nominee was announced, which has produced several cases. "They want to hug me and they want to kiss me," he said. "And they do. And frankly, I'm not telling them to back off." He aired disappointment with three of his senior-most administration officials - including two of his most loyal Cabinet members - though they seemed unwilling to do anything about it, saying he didn't want to talk about it further. And he lobbed accusations against Sen. Kamala Harris, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, that edged into the realm of Joseph McCarthy. "She's a communist. She's not a socialist, she's well beyond a socialist," he said, going on to make false, fear-mongering claims that Harris wants to "open up the borders to allow killers and murderers and rapists to pour into our country. " He twice called Harris, the first woman of color on a major party ticket, a "monster." The appearance shoved aside any coverage of Wednesday evening's vice presidential debate. And it seemed to solidify the impression of a candidate in deep distress about the state of his campaign. Over the course of his illness, Trump has remained focused on the race, people who spoke to him said. He has expressed concern at how his hospitalization will play politically, and initially resisted going to Walter Reed. Trailing his rival Biden - in some national polls by double digits - the President seemed to be grasping at last-ditch attack lines, including implying the 77-year-old Biden would not last a full term in office. "Biden won't be president for two months," he baselessly claimed. "He's not mentally capable." By comparison, Trump portrayed himself a picture of health, even though he is the candidate who last week struggled to breathe and required supplemental oxygen. "I'm back because I am a perfect physical specimen and I'm extremely young. And so I'm lucky in that way," Trump said. Trump, at 74, is clinically obese and has known heart issues. "I could've been out of the hospital in one day," he added, attributing his recovery to the experimental monoclonal antibody therapy produced by Regeneron. Left unanswered were the many open questions about Trump's condition, which weren't asked by his pliant interviewer. He did not address what his lung scans showed, didn't say when he last tested negative and wasn't asked how high his temperature reached at the end of last week, when he was airlifted to Walter Reed. "I'm essentially very clean," Trump said. Trump has been eager to put his hospitalization behind him. He returned to the Oval Office on Wednesday, briefed by aides decked out in full protective gear on a looming hurricane and stimulus talks. Already, travel has been discussed for next week, even though based on the time of Trump's infection he would likely still be contagious. Trump shrugged those concerns off in his interview. "I don't think I'm contagious at all," I claimed. He listed three senior members of his administration who he said have displeased him, for different reasons. Some, such as FBI Director Christopher Wray, have irritated Trump for months. But his criticism of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was new. "I'm not happy about him, for that," Trump said of his top diplomat for not surfacing emails he says were deleted by his 2016 rival Hillary Clinton. He also went after Attorney General William Barr, who he said would go down in history as "a sad situation" if he doesn't prosecute Trump's political rivals. "Bill has got to move," he said, suggesting time was running short for his administration officials to use their offices to go after his opponents. More familiar were his attacks on Wray, who he accused of downplaying the risks of mail-in voting. But asked whether I have planned to dismiss another FBI director, Trump demurred. "I don't want to say that yet," he said. "He's been disappointing."
