First the @imperialcollege paper, which finds that the new variant is still being ultra-infectious despite November lockdowns - link here, but cases of new variant trebled in SEast, even under lockdown /2

The paper then notes (given schools were open and under 20s are most infected): "A particular concern is whether it will be possible to maintain control over transmission while allowing schools to reopen in January 2021." /3
This echoes what govt science advisory SAGE cmme told ministers on Dec 22...that it was "highly unlikely" the R number can be kept below 1 (cases falling, it is currently 1.1-1.3) with schools open /4

But on Dec 30 Gavin Williamson announce primaries would go back, and secondary schools would have staggered return while testing regime (lateral flow, not that sensitive) was set up - see statement here
Two women were killed last night by this man.
He was released last month after a burglary arrest.
(1/x)
According to the article he has a record of:
+ 2 counts of voluntary manslaughter
+ possession of a stolen vehicle
+ leaving the scene of an accident
+ burglary
+ driving while under the influence of alcohol and drugs

There is a question as to who is responsible here, beyond the suspect.
Apparently he was released on 12/23 for another crime.
There is an algorithm which makes suggestions, which judges and the DA office use as inputs.

Is Boudin responsible for the two women killed by parole?
— Lou B (@LuigiCPA) January 1, 2021
Troy M was booked last night for stealing a car, second degree burglary, felon in possession of a firearm, large capacity magazine, meth, and voluntary manslaughter.
Boudin let the parole go as recently as Dec 23 (1/3)
Here is our DA's response:
We will make changes to ensure that people on parole receive the supervision and structure needed from parole to prevent this kind of tragedy from recurring.

It is my impression that the balance of justice is off-kilter in SF right now.
Feels like career criminals can act with virtually no consequences, until someone gets killed.
The "broken windows" theory is feeling truer and truer to me.

Pardon the all-caps, but the Senate's veto override today means that the U.S. A) just eliminated the primary building block in America's transformation into an offshore haven, and B) passed the most sweeping counter-kleptocracy reforms in decades—potentially ever.
Incredible news, and an incredible way to start 2021. What a moment.
THE U.S. JUST BANNED ANONYMOUS SHELL COMPANIES https://t.co/mYakQOu3N7

Huge boost to American credibility in the fight against modern kleptocracy. Huge blow to those who'd turned to the U.S. time and again for their laundering needs, and those U.S. states that had transformed into money laundering havens of their own.
Just phenomenal news.
Again, this is a massive testament to all those who exposed the rot these anonymous shell companies led to, especially the journalists who exposed the laundering networks and civil society activists pressuring legislators to make this change (when it seemed next to impossible).

4/ On consistency
If, EVERYDAY, you:
— Ryan Reeves (@investing_city) July 13, 2020
- did 10 burpees
- read 20 pages of a book
- saved $10
That would probably put you in the top quartile for health, knowledge and wealth.
Consistency is extremely undervalued.
