Sargassum Seaweed Bloom Back Overrunning S. Florida Beaches

Leave a reply

Seaweed is invading South Florida beaches again this summer. From Miami Beach to Ft. Pierce, Florida, the sargassum bloom has impacted beaches with up to shin deep stinky weed.

It’s caused by fertilizer runoff and pollution in the Atlantic Ocean and greatly impacts the Caribbean and Florida beaches. Since I reported on the first major Sargassum Seaweed bloom over 10 years ago, we’ve had a couple times that was almost this bad. Hopefully it won’t get as bad as the first:

Wagyu beef in the USA is highly regarded for its exceptional quality, driven by a combination of Japanese genetics, American farming practices, and consumer demand for premium beef.

Here’s why it stands out:

  • Marbling
  • Fat Quality
  • Tenderness
  • Flavor
  • Breeding and Crossbreeding
  • American Rearing Practices
  • Accessibility and Variety
  • Grading and Standards

The combination of Japanese genetics with American scale and innovation results in a premium product that’s luxurious yet more accessible than imported Japanese Wagyu.

Australian Woman Completes 7,079 Pull-Ups in 24 Hours

An Australian completed 7,079 pull-ups in 24 hours — nearly doubling the previous female Guinness World Record. Olivia Vinson, 34, told Guinness World Records she was looking for a challenge when her husband and coach suggested she attempt the record.

“I was looking for a bigger challenge and my husband and coach actually suggested 24 hours of pull ups, which I initially, quite literally, laughed at because I thought there was no way,” Vinson said. “I looked up what the current record was, which was 4,081, and again I thought, ‘There’s no way.'”

Vinson said it was only after she crunched the numbers on the previous record, which was set by Polish woman Paula Gorlo in 2021, that she started to reconsider.

“After a little while, I did some maths on it and I thought maybe I could,” she said.

The record for the most pull-ups in 24 hours (male) is 11,707, achieved by Oh Yohan (South Korea) on September 28-29, 2024.
