My wife and I lived in a 2BR apt in Queens, NY for the first 3 years of our marriage. We bought a 3BR townhouse in the same neighborhood just after son #2 was born (5.5 years ago). It was for sale by owner - we saw it on a neighborhood Yahoo group. No agents/realtors/brokers involved, so no commission baked into the…

First the foot crept onto the baseline during a serve and a linesperson called out a foot fault, annulling what would’ve been the ace that sealed the match.

I don’t watch enough NBA to know whether this take is right or wrong, but the examples are terrible. All of the ‘old’ kind are where the offense has at least a man advantage, and all of the ‘new’ kind are where the defense is back in numbers.

Doesn’t the ball take a little touch off 43? And wouldn’t that make it onside?

TBH, I was never quite sure why anyone thought it looked like he was crying in that clip anyway. And he certainly says “get me up”.

Why don’t they have signs at the appropriate height hanging from chains before the light? That way they get a physical warning (the truck hitting the sign), without major damage.

HAven’t read that book, but while the practice of a Jewish wife working to support the family while the husband studies is much more common today, it was extremely rare during the time of the fire.

Probably worth mentioning that she’s actually a judge, probably the first female hasidic judge.

My uncle and cousins, who live in Middlesex County, are die hard Mets fans, but he grew up in Queens, and raised his kids as Mets fans. Maybe there’s a lot of that kind of thing in NJ?

Absolutely. Overall, he comes off as a petulant child that she does her best to indulge.

This is basically my favorite thing about any movie/show even mildly based  on true events - especially if they’re historically significant. My wife used to hate that I do that, and now she does the same.

The point is that it’s not a very well constructed study if it excludes non-leisure exercise. The fact that the paper specifies this exclusion doesn’t excuse it.

There’s no cap per se. There’s a salary schedule which basically dictates what you make based on education and years of service. Here it is (scroll to the last page for the most current schedule):

Can easily be more than that if you work summer, as long as you have a masters plus.

This. My wife is a (speech) teacher in the NYC DOE. The benefits are fantastic, probably better than the 90% of private jobs - paid parental leave was the only thing missing. It was a bit strange that I got a week paid from my company for my first 2 kids (raised to 4 weeks! by the time my third came around), while my…

Whose wife is an ADA? Brafman’s wife, who is retired, was a preschool librarian.

• Anthony Rizzo, for watching all of this unfold from home plate. It’s good and sound rundown practice for him to protect the run after Willson Contreras abandoned his post—the outcome would have been far worse if he’d abandoned the post and Yelich had scored. But after a certain point in the rundown he could’ve seen…

That second clip had nothing to do with dribbling. Curry falls down from body contact, not getting dribbled off his feet.

How is there not one comment here about what happened right after Chuck said he wants to punch ‘him’ in the face. Both Kenny and Ernie immediately said “Which one?”. It was glorious. Insert that ‘why not both?’ meme.

Very much this. When people were getting on the reporter in the first article here, I was thinking that LeBron relishes these opportunities. He absolutely wanted his ‘raw’ reaction out there for everyone to see. When she asked him off camera, he probably said, “Yeah, sure. Let me get into character.”
