This phylogeny shows evolutionary relationships of HCoV-19 viruses from the ongoing novel coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic. All samples are still closely related with few mutations relative to a common ancestor, suggesting a shared common ancestor some time in Nov-Dec 2019. This indicates an initial human infection in Nov-Dec 2019 followed by sustained human-to-human transmission leading to sampled infections.
Site numbering and genome structure uses Wuhan-Hu-1/2019 as reference. The phylogeny is rooted relative to early samples from Wuhan. Temporal resolution assumes a nucleotide substitution rate of 5 × 10^-4 subs per site per year. Full details on bioinformatic processing can be found here.

Heres an oldie but goodie. 2005 Im riding with the Phoenix MC. Im on the right in the first pic. We are waiting for everyone to show up to head out to a Hells Angels party in Western MA. Im not a hardcore biker so the things I witnessed at this party still blow my mind.. Not sure they would be able to get away with parties like that in this day and age of PC outrage.

Trump pitched 0% payroll tax rate for the rest of the year, White House official says

"There was also discussion of making the payroll tax rollback permanent, said the official, who declined to be named. Payroll taxes are used to fund Medicare and Social Security. When asked about the potential cost of a payroll tax cut, the official pushed back and asked why there is always a focus on the cost of tax cuts. "

Further reading:

Q. What are the major federal payroll taxes, and how much money do they raise?
A. Payroll taxes are levied to finance Social Security, the hospital insurance portion (Part A) of Medicare, and the federal unemployment insurance program. Revenue totaled just over $1.1 trillion, or about 6.1 percent of gross domestic product, in fiscal year 2017.
