The Trump administration, which had not anticipated a long-term shutdown, recognized only this week the breadth of the potential impact, several senior administration officials said. The officials said they’re focused now on understanding the scope of the consequences and determining whether there is anything they can do to intervene.

FZ: A distinction must be made here between energy savings between electric and wood- and gas-fired ovens. Most customers request energy savings because it helps lower their costs and is considered a social responsibility issue for many operators. That said, when purchasing an electric oven, it is important to verify that the energy-saving quality of the oven comes from an improvement in technology and all-around insulation of the oven. Nowadays you must be wary of many ovens with lower consumption as it may also result in a lack of power and poor general construction of the oven. With fired ovens, energy efficiency is a combination of factors: thick brick construction (refractor brick in this case is the best heat-conducting material), a smaller oven door opening and automated flame regulation. The automated flame allows the gas flame to be on until desired temperature is reached, turning on and off as needed. Automatic oven ignition also helps lower energy consumption.

Mary Roach, a self-confessed “goober with a flashlight,” has created a niche for books with one-word titles—Gulp (on the digestive system); Bonk (on the science of sex)—that take a funny, and informed, look at the scientific secrets of everyday things. In her latest book, Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War, she goes behind the scenes of modern warfare to celebrate the unsung heroes of military science, who do everything from design high-tech clothing for the battlefield to perform penis transplants—all in the name of keeping soldiers "alive and comfortable." (Learn about the effects of battlefield blasts on soldiers’ brains.)

Some of the best pizza in Los Angeles can be found in an empty lot in the back of a wine bar. It’s open only once a week, for four hours (or until it runs out of dough), and it’s nestled between the Thai Town and Little Armenia neighborhoods of Hollywood, where a pizzaiolo and his home-built, wood-fired dome oven (made in a Charleston backyard, of all places) spits out upward of 70 pies over the course of the night. It’s often gorgeous: Neapolitan in technique, but with the spirit of a sturdier New York pizza (as in, the core will not dissolve into a tomatoey pool after the first slice). And yet, every week, an Armenian mother will step out from her balcony adjacent to the lot and gaze down upon the action. Every week, she offers her consult: Let me show you how to make real pizza. Thus far, it’s been an empty threat. She’s never actually come down. Perhaps intuition tells her there’s no need.

While many federal workers go without pay and the government is partially shut down, hundreds of senior Trump political appointees are poised to receive annual raises of about $10,000 a year.
