Indonesia wants a larger role in supplying nickel and other raw materials to China’s fast-growing electric car makers.

Consider some flavorful twists for making the most of two seasonal staples — in meals, with friends or just because.(The two even come together in some yummy Thanksgiving stuffing recipes.)

Beyond traditional apple, including dumplings, salads, cider-glazed chicken and apple butter.Starbucks, which gave us the

, has debuted an iced apple crisp oat milk shaken espresso this fall. Trader Joe’s has a popular, seasonal Honeycrisp Apple scented candle. And there are lots of home and body products that promise fresh, apple-y goodness.Editors at shelter magazines suggest apple-themed parties as a way to reconnect with nature and celebrate the changing seasons.

Apple Tastings. According to the USDA, there are about 2,000 apple varieties grown in North America. Jenna Helwig, Real Simple’s food director, suggests picking about half a dozen and printing out tasting notes for each. “Slice them into wedges, and invite guests to decide which they like best,” she says. Varieties like Cosmic Crisp, Ginger Gold, SweeTango, Opal and Lady Alice don’t brown as quickly as others, which makes them good choices not only for a tasting, but for a cheese and apple board, she said.

Cider Bars, spiced or spiced-and-spiked. Helwig suggests heating cider on the stove till it’s hot, and then adding cinnamon sticks, star anise, sliced ginger and whole cloves for fragrance and flavor. Let it all steep for 10 minutes, remove the spices, and set the burner to “warm,” or pour it into a slow cooker for the party. Guests can serve themselves with a ladle; place a tray of brandy, rum and bourbon next to the pot for those indulging.“They’re the standard now,” Brind’Amour said.

It has been a long time since the league has seen a run like this.Tampa Bay made three straight finals from 2020 through 2022 (with two of those seasons shortened by COVID), but no team — until now — has navigated three consecutive full regular seasons and gotten to the Stanley Cup Final in each of those years since Edmonton from 1983 through 1985. By the time this year’s title series is over, the Panthers will have played more games in a three-year span than any team in NHL history.

It’s an accomplishment, for certain. Zito wasn’t thinking about any of that after the Carolina series. There were travel plans to put together, reports to look at, somewhere between four and seven more games left in this season to think about.”I don’t think that the elation or the appreciation for the moment diminishes,” Zito said. “I think perhaps the way it manifests itself, it’s just channeled differently. ... That level of respect and appreciation for where you are, in tandem with the hunger, you want to do it again. You want to do it again. What can we start doing now? Don’t stop. Don’t get content. And those guys, they woke up with 100 texts each from everyone telling them how great they are. Everyone did. And it’s not over.”
