Philodendron seeds do not need to be soaked prior to planting. The seeds will take about 2 to 8 weeks to germinate when the temperature of the soil is kept between 68 and 73 degrees Fahrenheit (20 to 23 degrees Celsius). When the seedlings sprout and become sturdy enough to handle, move each one to a small pot of its own to foster strong root development. Orchid soil (with bark pieces) and a mixture of sphagnum peat and vermiculite or a mixture of sand and turf/compost can provide good nutrition for your newly planted cutting....

Now, age is no longer a number as Hadary rose magnificently to save two penalties in the 4-3 shootout victory. It wasn’t just in the lottery of the shootout that the keeper proved his heroism.

Hadary was single-handedly carrying his nation through. A key attribute for the team is that they didn’t concede a single goal in this Afcon, until Aristide Bancé scored for Burkina Faso in the 73rd minute....

In a CBS 60 Minutes interview Sunday, Powell expressed his belief that domestic economy recovery from the pandemic might not happen until late 2021. “People will go back to work. Unemployment will get back down,” he said. “We’ll get through this. It may take a while. It may take a period of time. It could stretch through the end of next year. We really don’t know.” “This is a time of great suffering and difficulty,” Powell continued, “and it’s come on us so quickly and with such force, that you really can’t put into words the pain people are feeling and the uncertainty they’re realizing....

“What Congress has done to date has been remarkably timely and forceful,” the central bank’s chairman testified to lawmakers on the Senate Banking Committee. “I do think we need to take a step back and ask over time: Is it enough?” There is “the risk of longer term damage to the economy,” he added, saying the Federal Reserve “may need to do more, and Congress may as well.” Powell’s testimony came amid an ongoing partisan political debate centered on whether state and local governments need more relief than the $150 billion they have already received so they can supplement budget shortfalls and maintain local government employees, such as teachers and first responders....
