with two outs and the way the team is hitting, it's as good a chance as getting two singles in a row to score a run.

You need to keep up, your conservative sources are skewing your facts. A good motto is 'there are no real or reliable facts on social media" Social media posting is useless beyond pointing you to something you might want to find out the real facts about somewhere else. The bill has been amended to remove specific reference to "gender affirming care", aims primarily to protect NJ residents and doctors from out of state prosecution for services *already legal* in NJ, (i.e. already passed by the people's legislature) including abortion and other reproductive services. Has zero to do with any "6 gender" references you posted it in response to. https://newjerseymonitor.com/2026/05/14/nj-transgender-healthcare-bill-gender-affirming-care/

With this and WPI numbers the bad news is pretty well confirmed. There is so much irony to consider with Warsh taking over for Powell this week. It's going to turn out that for all Powell and the Fed's resistance to Trump's fury over them not lowering rates more, history is going to show that they none-the-less did take their foot off the brakes too soon, which of course is now going to require a more severe correction, and probably another year or two, to fix, and this is a terrible outcome for American consumers. But it's also going to be a terrible one for Trump and the GOP. Inflation will finally be the railroad spike through the heart of Trump's second term. As always in life Donald, be careful what you wish for.

If you can find one person in 20 that cares about these I'd be surprised, but just keep worrying what color sandals the toga set is wearing if it takes your mind off Rome burning. 🙄

Vest and Brieske both pitched for the Hens last night - as far was we know neither had their arm fall off.

Riley's such an odd bird, and bird is what come to mind because he just doesn't move like a typical athlete - you can't even say if it's necessarily an asset or a deficit but there is nothing typical about his kinesiology. But whatever, it's really nice to see him hitting more like the promise of 2024.

I'll be surprised if Riley can find the base with anything he tries to throw hard.

He had to swing just out of the zone to get that. The other night he took strike three in almost the same place with the game on the line. And he went to RF.

walk and a hit - Torkelson has to get back to that being his normal night and maybe he'll be OK.

but not that time.

The running game has blown up in their face way too much this year.

interesting thought, but you can probably forget about ever seeing a 3-6-3 DP. 🫤 Might be better on foul balls....

stole 2nd, then doulbed ott

yes the continuity was the driver. I suppose there is such an ephemeral aspect to the whole construct of an US cable news source that that is why the continuity is important. It's understandable they needed to rename without risking the loss off the old identification and since they couldn't use the 2nd half they had no choice but to re-use the first, but that combination of circumstances still yielded what strikes me a very silly result.

talking about odd echoes in station branding I've wondered what they were thinking with the "MS-Now" rebrand that has nothing to do with MS. One possible angle is that for people that have their channel guides indexed alphabetically, keeping the "MS" does insure that people don't "lose" track of where to find them. IDK for how many people the alphabetically indexed guide is a thing, but it's about the only angle I've thought of where "MS-Now" offers anything.

I learned about hard 'ch' in Italian when I got my Bianchi bicycle frame.

With Mize something unforeseen is getting to be foreseeable.

at the rate they are giving up runs, the offense hardly even matters. They might as well get over all their slumping before the pitching (hopefully) becomes competitive again.

has someone checked the flight logs to Katmandu? I guess they have put out that he's having a health issue. Apparently something that has taken his ability to speak.

I'm pretty sure it was Ch 7 "ActionNews" that ran the spots but I've forgotten the target - could have been when WWJ/WDIV hired Mort Crim?

Riley has made a good step this season. nice OBP improvement, though still too many Ks

indeed. doesn’t fully explain why guys that are playing are playing below optimum, but you can’t discount the snowball effect.

and there are multiple levels of this. you can do a period piece and want the characters to have period sensibilities, e.g. barbarians talking like barbarians, or you set an essentially modern fable in period and want those characters to have a ‘modern’ outlook. my compliant about Nuremberg was even narrower than that, which is the unnecessary use of particular words/idioms that didn’t exist in the era when the language of the era would be perfectly intelligible to the viewer if the writer had bothered to look for the anachronisms he had let creep in and purge them.

i disagree on this one. something they did in red october on a different aspect demonstrates why: the cinematographer on hfro realized that he needed some way for the viewer to instantly recognize which sub he was looking at, so he lit each one in a different color. the subterfuge works perfectly, your brain picks it up but you hardly notice at the conscious level. IIRC a similar trick was used in VanillaSky to id dream sequences. accents work the same, it maintains a level of illusion identifying the difference in context but still allows you access to dialog you understand.
