New York Archdiocese Will Compensate Sex Abuse Victims if They Relinquish Their Right to Sue

Online multiplayer. Very few of my friends play games these days, and I have no interest in playing with strangers.

Remember, the sticker number is from a set speed/load schedule from the EPA. Highway EPA is more like 2-lane highway speeds, not freeway speeds. The problem is, it’s hard to make a schedule that meets all customer usage profiles, and cost prohibitive to test all possible conditions. EPA ratings are more of a way…

Car makers buy the other company’s cars all the time to see how they did what. It’s called benchmarking. If for some reason you can not get you head around that. You really have not been very deep into the car biz. and when you are talking about company like Honda that does not build new sports cars very often, they…

The statistic about 273 disappearances on cruises is meaningless without more context. How many people went on cruises in those 20 years? What’s the ratio of disappearances on other kinds of vacations compared to the total number of people taking those kinds of vacations? For all we know (and really, I have no idea, I…

Cleveland fans have nothing to worry about. There’s a good chance that come late October, Cubs fans will be making them look good.

Cleveland is already full of insufferable assholes. They set Lebron’s jersey on fire when he left. There is also the entitlement that since they live in a shithole instead of somewhere like Miami or LA they deserve to have success. Its too late but if it makes them feel better almost all fans are insufferable.

I hope the Cardinals lose 100 Games.

As a Reds fan this series of articles is all that keeps me interested in baseball this season.

Homer? Arigato! Mr. J Votto.

Allow me to preempt the people who are gonna come here and cry about it - yes, every time, yes, all season. The Best Feature in Baseball will never die.

Thank you! I did a much shorter post but tried to explain the same thing. EPA uses standard tests in a controlled environment to compare apples to apples. If all conditions are equal vehicle 1 can achieve X miles per gallon while vehicle 2 can achieve Y miles per gallon.

Came here to say the same thing, kudos to you. Using real-world testing is useless from an “eliminate variation” problem. Using Torch’s Arizona example: different drivers on different days with different temperature/humidity/traffic/temperament and a whole raft of other variables that need to be accounted for. We…

It’s wonderful we have a scientifically and engineeringly ignorant society.
