Even ESports are canceled because of Coronavirus…..

UNDATED (AP) – A global esports league with teams in North America, Europe and Asia is canceling all matches through March and April because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Overwatch League launched an ambitious home-and-away schedule for its 20 franchises in February but already had postponed all events in China and South Korea due to the outbreak. The league announced the latest cancellations
in a statement Wednesday. The league’s players come from countries around the globe. OWL says it is “considering the various options available to esports.”

Blizzard Entertainment, which operates the Overwatch and Call of Duty Leagues, said scheduling considerations also are being addressed for the latter. For most people, the new coronavirus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever
and cough. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia. The vast majority of people recover from the new virus.

A Weird Fireworks Law in Florida is Finally Fizzling Out…..

TALLAHASSEE, Florida (AP) – Floridians may soon be able to buy fireworks without lying.

The Florida House passed a bill on an 82-34 vote Wednesday to allow fireworks sales for use on the Fourth of July, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. For years Floridians have been buying fireworks for those occasions and other celebrations but have had to sign a form saying they are only using them to scare birds away from farms and fisheries.
