I was seeing a woman from Tatarstan, the double eyelid phenotypes were pronounces along with some other features that are even more common in East Asia. There are a lot of people in Russia like that.
I had never heard of that place while in the US, its just “Russia” and an image of the part bordering the EU
I love how it's turn-based. Everything is purposeful and strategic with football. Whereas games like hockey and basketball are very fluid, the strategy is more vague. There's a general sense of what you want to do, but it depends on a lot of factors. You could technically have a player deke between every player and score a goal or basket, but that would essentially be impossible in football.
With football, it's a reset every down, and everyone is ready, so the strategy is critical.
It's filled with the best athletes colleges can produce for that particular sport. The worst football player on any NFL team is probably better than the best football players from the college that he attended for the previous few years.
One thing people don't realize is that these athletes are running as fast as they possibly can, especially the wide receivers. That means the cornerbacks/defenders are running as fast as they can as well. When there's any sort of separation between the wide receiver and the cornerback, that is extremely dangerous. That separation can't be made up, because they're already running as fast as they can. That means separation is an opportunity to target the wide receiver. When the quarterback throws a football with a window of a few feet to a wide receiver 40 yards away, it's simply beautiful.
There is a perfect balance between offense and defense, and there are always trade offs. Both offense and defense are looking for mismatches. Thus, if you have a wide receiver that is faster than cornerback covering him, then you have a mismatch that will be taken advantage of with impunity. So instead, you need to double-cover him with a safety playing up high. But then that leaves one of their offensive players poorly covered. How do you make up for that? You blitz with an oversized number of defenders so that you give the quarterback less time to find an open man. Or, if you have a mismatch on your defensive line, and they outmatch the protection for the quarterback, then that also gives the quarterback less time to make a play.
So you can counter that by bringing your running back or tight end to provide extra blocking. But then that limits the number of targets you can have.
There's just a long list of pros and cons to this game which makes it utterly fascinating. The players live and breathe all of this stuff.
I learned that Tarek Hill ran the 200m in 20.14s. The french all time record is barely under 20, and the Tareek's score could allow him to reach the French finals every year since 2015.
During the Swine Flu epidemic, British health care workers were given an untested vaccine. It left many of them with lingering health problems like narcolepsy. This is what happens when things are unsafely and quickly distributed.
If you pay at the higher end of rates and go with Superhosts, your experience will largely be flawless. I've never had a problem and my stays have been amazing, but I'm also spending hotel-equivalent prices or higher.
This is incorrect. There needs to be large investors willing to buy at $140 in order to say the CFO failed. There likely wasn't.
You can't compare the actions of "smart money" like Fidelity, etc to a small investor swept up in the speculative mania and buying 50 shares at $140. Those are the ones propping up the prices until the big money deems it safe enough to buy large volumes.
The reaction of the markets to Airbnb's IPO is definitely an echo of the dotcom days.
The only question is, is Airbnb's IPO equivalent to Netscape (ie. near the beginning of the boom) or Pets.com (near the end). Only time will tell I suppose.
Vitamin D taken via pill is not the same an that manufactured by sunlight. The pill form has side effects like causing too much absorption of calcium in the intestines, which leads to other problems. This is something that doesn't happen from sunlight.
