Have you ever heard of a champagne mango? My wife and I had them when we toured a farm in Hawaii where their goal wasn't actually to grow / sell fruit, but to replenish the nutrients in the soil that were wrecked by sugar cane plantations. Anyway, the guy pulls these mangoes straight off the tree and tells us they're really fibrous so you can't eat them like a regular mango, but you can mash it up in the skin then drink it like a juice box. He tossed me the one he was mashing up as a demo while explaining all this then told me to bite the top off and drink. As soon as my teeth broke the skin, juice started gushing out onto my shoes and the ground. The juice from that mango is easily like top 3 things I've ever eaten. Both the amount of flavor and the amount of juice that came from it were unbelievable.

What are you using a barometer for so frequently?

This would make a sick map in Tony Hawk Pro Skater.

Could someone explain what's going on here? I know very little about Formula 1, but this popped in my 'all' feed and I'm curious to know the context.

Yeah, especially with the stroke. Hopefully that was a one time freak occurrence and not a recurring problem for him. To be that young and have a stroke is scary stuff.

This is much more on a league perspective than a team perspective, but I'd say Kris Letang for the Penguins. He's had his ups and downs, but he's been the Penguins go to D-man for like 15 years. He's rarely discussed among the best defensemen in the league. Then again, maybe that's because he shouldn't usually be in that discussion and I'm just biased as a Pens fan.

How long are you resting between sets? The simple answer could very well be that you just need to rest longer between sets. As Dr. Mike Israetel explains in this video, there's no magic number for how long you need to rest. https://youtu.be/0FZf6nv_aGg

 

Seeing any one of these things during a dive would be a highlight of my life. Being able to experience all of it at once puts this at the top of my scuba bucket list. Maybe one day...

By bank manager, do you mean like the manager of a specific location? Or do you mean higher up than that?

TD11-KV for me. Had it about 7 years now. I plug it into my computer and run it through Addictive Drums. The sounds are incredible. They're so much easier to record compared to micing up acoustic drums too.

This is such a Blue Jackets move. They make it so hard to stay optimistic about their outlook. Finally get some high-end offensive firepower with Laine and Gaudreau, then they hire a guy to scare them away.

Datsyuk for sure should be in the Hall of Fame. Four time Lady Byng and three time Selke winner plus two Stanley Cups. Even without those he should be in just for how silky his mitts were.
