Star Wars: The Bad Batch Rumored to Bring Back a Fan-Favorite Character – ComicBook.com

Disney+'s upcoming Star Wars animated series Star Wars: The Bad Batch will reportedly bring back a fan-favorite character from past Star Wars cartoons -- and more recently, live-action series. Cinelinx reports having learned that Star Wars: The Bad Batch will feature the return of Bo-Katan Kryze, the Mandalorian leader who recently debuted in live-action in The Mandalorian. Katee Sackhoff plays Bo-Katan both as her voice actor and live-action actor. Star Wars: The Bad Batch reportedly occurs after the events of "The Siege of Mandalore," meaning Bo-Katan's appearance will fill in the gap left between then and her reemergence in Star Wars Rebels. If the rumor is true, then it will be granting Sackhoff her wish. She recently stated that she'd love to explore more of Bo-Katan's past. "I do...

Testing poop to predict Miami’s COVID-19 trends? It’s been a messy process so far – Tampa Bay Times

MIAMI — In March, when it became clear that the U.S. was facing an unprecedented pandemic, Miami-Dade County began sampling its sewage as a potential tool for measuring the extent of COVID-19 infections. The hope was that testing the county’s poop for the coronavirus could serve as an early warning indicator of a dreaded second wave expected in the fall.

The process got off to a slow, messy start but they’ve cleaned up the data and there is still some promise it will work. For months, the county has been paying $3,600 a week to see if testing sewage could help estimate coronavirus infection trends ...
