If this happened at Chicago, it would be front page news. Boston and NY aren’t WR eligible. Since it happened in London, place it behind soccer in the priority list.

Elite marathon runners aim for a one minute negative split (Second half faster than the first). These guys pretty much nailed it.

Oh it is. At a typical large high school making the team puts you in the top 1% or better of athletic ability compared to the population at large. At my peak, I finished the NYC Marathon in the top 2%. I still finished 45 minutes behind the

Much like the road bikes that cost as much as a sedan, unless you are competing on a world stage, these aren’t meant for you. I’m sure someone will happily sell them to you if you enjoy wasting money.

Admittedly, I’ve never ridden a 16” wheeled bike. My 20” is rough enough that I’ve never bothered considering the smaller wheeled models. Maybe if I bike/train commuted every day rather than a few times a month.

I think OP meant the phone was going to be replaced in three years tops, so no one cared much about battery longevity. Nowadays, the battery can be the constraint for practical phone life, since few consumers can replace one themselves and

>> That being said, the world is increasingly crowded with "good enough" music. As I enter my mid-50s this is how I feel about the music I listen to. I have decades and decades of music I love for a variety of reasons. I don

That’s not bad. One of my favorite times is college football season with a big game on say, ABC. You quickly learn who it watching OTA, who is watching on cable and who has YoutubeTV based on the different reaction times after a big play.

What a sad view of the universe. To hold that humanity in the year 2026 is the best the universe can do.

Elastic hair ties have always been a favorite of my cats. My wife has to hide them unless she wants to be gifted with the "kill" at 3am.

This deal has zero to do with someone like you. This impacts our electrical grid. Now instead of harvesting renewable wind energy we will be burning LNG to power that portion of the grid. I suppose there are still some diesel generators out

You can't know how big of a problem it is without an investigation. Frequently, the initial "obvious" cause of a collision or incursion turns out to be a multi-layered set of failures. Tightening up procedures or recognizing

I’m not sure that Google/Android selling everyone two phones instead of one is the deterrent to this behavior that you envision.

The target customer for this wants a laptop that will live in a dedicated space and rarely/never travel, except to the couch. 15 inches is perfect for that.

I put Linux on an old Surface tablet. Works better than Windows on the same device. The only thing that isn't working under Linux is the camera. Built in extra privacy as a bonus!

Which is why they are supposed to have a sworn officer review the camera footage. I have certainly had a camera flash me while waiting to turn right on red, still outside the intersection. They never sent me a ticket however since I had cle

Many US states have switched to that approach. The ticket goes to the registered owner of the vehicle and no penalty points are attached. It's treated more like a parking citation than a traditional moving violation.

All this focus on some insiders who made thousands on betting markets to distract from those who made billions on Wall Street or the oil markets this week. Both should face consequences but only one will.

When we were dating my wife always said she didn't want to have an only child. I was fine with only having one but always assumed we'd have at least two. After going through pregnancy, she decided she was fine with never doing tha
