I can’t do that either. I just sit cross-legged for those parts and then get back on my knees when we move on.

I’m about 5’10” and 240 and have been doing yoga for the last couple of months. It’s really not that crazy. Obviously, I can’t do headstands or handstands like some (though most beginners can’t anyways) but I can do every single pose to at least 90%.

It is absolutely certain that, barring the body cam video, the officer who killed Sam Dubose would never have been charged and, in fact, would likely have been lionized given our society’s willingness to trust absolutely the words of police officers. If only one murdering cop is brought to justice because of body…

Ugh, those parachutes. I don’t think I’m ready for that.

And indeed, McClellan was in a position to do so, but he was reluctant to proceed owing to the appalling number of casualties.

Leave it to a bunch of scientists to study the effect diet has on the flavor of pigs without having anybody, you know, eat the pig.

Yeah, you look at a picture like that one and think it must be taken with a huge telescope, but he’s just using a standard 400mm lens and gathering a lot of light. Crazy.

I would say there’s two aspects of this. Contacting me (as the person in charge of the search committee) and asking questions about the position or getting a feel for the job is a good thing. Using that information to inform your cover letter and resume is a better thing. It shows me you’re motivated and gets your…

It does. We just watched in in our browser and ran an HDMI cable to the TV.

With these two in place, Fox has everything it needs to form a sort of Suicide Squad of race-baiting hot-takers.

I agree. I’m already paying $23/mo for HBO Now and Hulu (no cable). If this would let me cut out the latter bill, while also providing a cloud DVR service (especially helpful for those days when I still want to watch a show but don’t get home in time or when I inevitably fall more than five episodes behind on…

My high school Spanish is very rusty, but even I can recognize “esta es el blooper.”

I remember seeing a copy of Duke Nukem 64 for $69.99 in the case at a local department store for like three years, well into the Gamecube era. And that was in 2002 or 2003, so it’d be more like $90 in today’s dollars.

I wonder if that would be his response to an employer asking him to work for free.

Not as impressive when Wikipedia calls them “minnow of the deep.”

Let me start by saying that I don’t think FIFA should be seeding the top-seeded teams. There are far better ways to get teams into certain sites without putting them into a specific bracket. I also think there’s a very good chance that FIFA did set this tournament up so that the US and Canada would stay in longer (you…

Well, the quarterfinals are when the group winners will first be able to face each other. I mean, just last year #3 Argentina and #5 Belgium both won their groups and played in the quarterfinals. And #4 Colombia drew Brazil, who pretty much everybody agrees was not the #11 team in the world.

However, you just as easily could read in more sinister machinations. The U.S. were placed in by far the most difficult group of the tournament, but would still have needed to completely collapse not to come out on top. Similarly, Canada’s group wasn’t the easiest either, with three of the four teams making it all the…

This is just a guesstimate since I don’t have the numbers in front of me right now, but I’d say we pay about

Uber’s compensation system more or less prevents full-time drivers from working for anybody other than Uber if they want to avoid a pay cut. That is an incredibly steep restriction that makes the relationship between the two parties very clear.
