ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A toddler lovingly known as the "Baby Shark Girl" is making big strides.When WFTS first met Harper Mae Comparin, the then-2-year-old girl born with spina bifida was learning how to walk via a very unique method: the "Baby Shark" song.Her physical therapist at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital used the syncopation of the love-it-or-hate-it kids jingle to get Harper Mae to move. And it worked.Now, a year and a half later, her team of medical workers and family members continue to use inventive methods to help her deal with complications related to the birth defect in which the spinal cord fails to develop properly.She needed therapy to walk and to talk.Physical therapist assistant Nick Hamilton, who works at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, recently helped Harper Mae when she was scared of getting her leg cast sawed off."I'm a big kid, so I fit right in here," Hamilton said.So, he improvised. He made a cast for Harper Mae's Elsa doll. And it worked."Having her baby doll that she carries with her everywhere get a cast just like hers has helped her feel better about it," said mom Erica Comparin.Hamilton says a big part of Harper Mae's therapy is "improvisation." Her parents agree.Harper Mae was already an Internet star for her "Baby Shark" moves, but now she's lighting things up online again with her unique trips to Disney World.Chasing characters all over the parks, scampering up ride queues, Harper is developing muscle in the most magical place on earth."She doesn't even realize she's doing it," said dad Fred Comparin.To follow the adventures of Harper Mae on Instagram, click here.This story was originally published by Sean Daly at WFTS. 1704

Several industries have been disrupted since the coronavirus pandemic hit the U.S., including the food supply chain. From dumped milk to piles of uneaten onions and potatoes, this was just some of the food going to waste on farms across America due to COVID-19-related shutdowns.“Really its impact on the food supply chain started in March,” said Jack Buffington, a supply chain expert currently developing the supply chain program at the University of Denver. “Most of us who have been in the supply chain have never seen an event like this happen.” While farmers were dumping or burying products, food banks were missing out on some much-needed supplies, and dealing with growing demand. So were grocery stores as restaurants were closed and consumer buying habits changed.“More of the retail food market went down and more of the consumer home food market went up,” Buffington explained. “This caused a major shock in the supply chain where you had this situation where some foods were going to waste and some foods were in high demand.”First, the federal government stepped in to help. The USDA was given up to billion through the Coronavirus Assistance Program to buy fresh produce, dairy, and meat from farmers and then distribute that to those in need.And then there were nonprofit organizations like FarmLink.“We matched a farm in Idaho, an onion farm, to or local food bank in Los Angeles,” Max Goldman with FarmLink explained. “We delivered 50,000 pounds of onions to them.” He said that was their proof of concept.Goldman is a student at Brown University. Him and a group of students saw the disruption in the supply chain, and decided to do something about it.“A lot of what we do is finding food that would’ve been sent to the dump,” he said.So, FarmLink was born to help with food waste.“We’ve done two million pounds in seven days,” Goldman said. In just two months, they’ve reallocated four million pounds of food. They pay farmers their cost with donations and grants they receive, and help get the good to food banks. Goldman said the farmers are generally grateful“One of the first farmers we worked with, he said the day he has to dump his food is the worst day of his life. He works all year to basically produce this food and for him to have to a dig a hole in his backyard and just take a dump truck and put all his potatoes and onions or whatever it is, he said it makes him cry and it’s the worst day of his life,” Goldman said. “Even if he lost money on it, he was glad he could send this food to people in need during this time.”So far, they’ve delivered food to approximately 30 states.“This is not a new issue and its been accelerated and made more public due to coronavirus, but every year there’s over 60 billion pounds of food waste,” Goldman said.Buffington said the work of FarmLink and organizations doing similar work is just a drop in the bucket, but it’s promising.“Small in scale of the overall supply chain, but it’s huge in this opportunistic saving of food,” he explained. Buffington sees this type of work as a Band-Aid on the bigger issue, but it could open eyes to solutions down the road.“Supply chains work really well on stability,” Buffington said. “It’s tough to think about innovation which is disruption, when you're worried about a disruption to your current model.”“I think when we pull out of this you’re going to see remarkable opportunities for innovation,” he said.For now, FarmLink and other organizations are working to make sure food doesn’t go to waste. Goldman’s goal is to move over a million pounds of food a day. “We’ve had tens of thousands of people reaching out wanting to help, and that’s just so uplifting and really gives you hope,” Goldman said. 3729

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The Cardinals' game Friday against the Chicago Cubs was postponed after another St. Louis player tested positive for COVID-19. In a press release, Major League Baseball said the game was postponed to allow more time for additional testing and to complete the contact tracing process. The Cardinals have been off since last week when two players returned positive coronavirus tests. Eight players in total have tested positive, including star catcher Yadier Molina.ESPN reported the Cardinals already have games to make up due to postponing against the Milwaukee Brewers, who they were scheduled to play last week in a 3-game series. They are scheduled to play against the Brewers in doubleheaders on Sept. 18 and 20, and then as home team in St. Louis for a twin-bill on Sept. 25, ESPN reported.According to ESPN, on Aug. 13 and Sept. 10, the Cardinals will play a doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers, who they were supposed to play in a 4-game series on Monday.Since MLB postponed the Field of Dreams game due to COVID-19, the Cardinals and Chicago White Sox will now play on Aug. 14 in Chicago. 1125

ST. LOUIS (AP) — A grand jury has indicted the St. Louis couple who displayed guns while hundreds of racial injustice protesters marched on their private street. A lawyer for Mark McCloskey and his wife, Patricia McCloskey, confirmed the indictments Tuesday. A spokeswoman for Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner declined comment.The McCloskeys, who are both attorneys, have become folk heroes among some conservatives. They argue that they were simply exercising their Second Amendment right to bear arms, and were protected by Missouri’s castle doctrine law that allows the use of deadly force against intruders. The case has caught the attention of President Donald Trump, and Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Parson has said he will pardon the couple if they are convicted.The McCloskeys also were featured speakers on the first night of the Republican National Convention. They’ve accused the “leftist” Democratic St. Louis leadership for their plight.Gardner, a Democrat, charged the couple with felony unlawful use of a weapon. She said the display of guns risked bloodshed at what she called an otherwise peaceful protest.Watkins said that in addition to the weapons charge, the grand jury indictment includes a tampering with evidence charge. It wasn’t clear what led to that additional count, he said. 1309
