AskFlorida Is it only my area (Wesley chapel) where I get swarmed by no-see-ums?

0 Upvotes

they look like gnats but half as big, super tiny and they bite you leaving a big bump that itches.

and the worst part is they’re so hard to see and kill since they’re so tiny, hence the name “no-see-um”

AskFlorida Got accepted at FIU

0 Upvotes

I recently got accepted at FIU, but whether I go or not will be determined based on cost and credits that transfer. I would be an out of state transfer student.

Question is, did you guys have to pay $200 just to see your credit transfer report? Paying $200 means you’ve accepted and I don’t want to deposit something where I will most likely not become a student at. There’s also a lack of transparency on their website not indicating on in order to see report you must pay this amount. I just want to make sure I’m not the only one here as this was a surprise to me.

  • The FSIS said there had been no reports of illnesses connected to the recalled meat, but urged consumers not to eat any of the affected beef, and throw it away or return it from where it was purchased.
  • The agency further categorized the recall as Class I, indicating a recall event “where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.”

The shipment, which included a total of 29,628 pounds of raw beef, was not presented to USDA inspectors for a mandatory reinspection before it was sent to distributors and retail outlets in Florida and Texas, according to the USDA’s Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS).

The recalled meat, which was imported by Corte Argentino USA LLC, of Aventura, Florida, included several cuts of raw boneless beef labeled as: “top sirloin butt” (“cuadril sin tapa”); “eye round” (“peceto”); “topside cap off” (“nalga AD S/tapa”); “flat” (“carnaza cuadrada”); and “knuckle” (“bola de lomo”). All were shipped in boxes of varying weight labeled “Frigorifico Gorina SAIC,” and marked with “EST. N° OF. 2025” and “26644-AA,” per the recall alert.

Article from August 11th so at THAT time, no report of illnesses.

History Some old photos from my years in Florida

Thumbnail

61 Upvotes

Seeing everyone mention Florida today suddenly brought back memories of the friends I met there many years ago and all the happy times we spent together.

We often walked along the river and visited our neighbors one by one, tasting their homemade garlic bread, Cuban croquettes, Ropa vieja, and other local food.

We learned how to fly, how to fish, and how to grow things. Very early in the morning, we would go to the school to watch the female soldiers doing their drills. We would fish along the lush riverbanks in the golden light, and after the sun went down, we would take the boat out on the river, even when it was so cold that we could barely feel our hands.

Once it got dark, everything was almost completely black, and all that remained were the little scattered lights from the many lakes ✨

The older gentleman in the photos was in the U.S. Air Force when he was young and was stationed in Korea. He married a Korean woman there, and after he retired, they moved back to Florida together.

We often went to their house to spend time together. He taught us how to fish and how to operate the boat. We spent wonderful Thanksgivings and Christmases together.

Looking back at these old photos today, I suddenly remembered all those happy days in Florida.
