    For Mexico, especially, yes. The national team has played 14 friendlies in the US in the last three years and has another one in August. Hell, 9 of their last 10 friendlies have been played in the US, with the only exception being the US's win in Azteca last year.

    This. All of this. Also, make sure to get a home warranty if you didn't already get your seller to purchase it. They usually run $400-600 and I'd usually have the seller pay for it, but it's so worth it. Here are the things we've had to do in the first 10 weeks (yes WEEKS) we've had our house.

    You might want to pop an "NSFW" on this one for that Keracolor Sphere ad.

    According to the OED, math is an American colloquialism "used as an abbreviation in written English in the UK but not in speech, the normal form being Maths."

    Except that in a lot of these cases, when you continue the derivation you obfuscate the actual meaning. Carolina wasn't named for freemen, it was named for King Charles. To try to derive it further loses the true meaning of the name. "Marsh Farm Land Area of the Land of the Dove" means nothing. But "City of George

    Way to cherry pick something that's not actually corn meal, but a corn bread mix. And still, all that's in there is corn meal, flour, baking soda, salt, and vitamins.

    Original Doctor Who stories were told over multiple episodes. For example, the story "Evil of the Daleks" had seven episodes. So he's indicating that full stories consisting of multiple episodes have been found. This would be huge because typically only one or two lost episodes are found together.

    If you're just living together, then I think it makes sense to keep the finances separate because, should something go wrong, there's no real legal method (like divorce) to determine what's his and what's hers.

    What an eloquent way of demonstrating the backward bending labor curve.

    Fun fact, Jefferson was originally designed to be on Washington's right, but the rock wasn't suitable so they blasted him off and carved him to Washington's left instead.

    It's perspective. There's a long walkway and viewing platform in between them and the actual statue. Look at this picture. They're standing at the top of the steps on the left side.

    My inlaws love Cincinnati Chili, though I found it awful at first. I find, if you think of it less as "chili" and more as "Mediterranean Spaghetti," it's a lot better. Because it really is just spaghetti with Mediterranean (not Italian) spices.

    As a stew, it should really be irrelevant what's in chili, so long as you have chili spices. That's what really matters.

    ABC's actually airing the rest of the show this summer, if you really need to see the rest.

    The paper hypothesizes that the monarchs' migratory orientation shifts clockwise about 1 degree each day (or 360 degrees in a year).

    My city (Wichita, KS) just shot down a fluoridation proposal too and the same things were at play here, except in our case there was really no public campaign in favor of fluoridation.
