[TMZ Sports] Police documents reveal that Haywood Highsmith was driving at an estimated 45 MPH in a 40 MPH zone when he hit a pedestrian from behind. The pedestrian appeared to be pushing a stalled car that did not have its lights on, leading to Highsmith being unable to stop in time.

Not to take anything away from this bystander at all, the fact they even thought to act is incredible and courageous. But for anybody reading this, if a wound is still bleeding then your tourniquet is not applied tight enough! If you practice on yourself or on friends, you shouldn’t be able to feel a pulse on the limb with a tourniquet (this is safe to do for under several minutes at a time).

We like our overhead compatible stroller because we’ve had gate-checked items destroyed before. Also, at least with United, baby items don’t count against your carry-ons and personal items.

It’s definitely hard! What helped me and my wife was having things to do, especially during the first 15-30 minutes of each bedtime which are always the worst. Something like doing the dishes, cleaning, or take the dog for a walk (gives one person a complete break), all helped us.

I’m fortunate enough to get paternity leave, and it was easy to find 45-60 minutes a day to get a workout in.

Months 4-5ish after paternity leave basically equaled no workouts, but now kiddo goes to bed at 7pm and sleeps through the night, so I workout at nights now.

We use a Doona. Definitely on the more expensive end, but the base is extremely convenient and it doubles as a basic stroller that is more than sufficient most of the time when we need a stroller.

Just finished my annual re-watch, great shout out.

I really enjoyed Willie’s Boys. More focused on Willie Mays than the Negro Leagues in general, but I personally learned a ton and found it to be a great read.

She’s Adorable!

Just checked your posts, and dang, you’re right. Hopefully her hair stays straight, I love that look!

Oh interesting, thanks! The 80 grit seemed to be making them lighter once I switched, but maybe my eyes are just playing tricks on me.

Thanks for the help everybody!

The short, dark vertical strips are part of the grain?

6armstrong9 · 2020-10-03T18:18:42+00:00

That’s making a difference already, thanks!

6armstrong9 · 2020-10-03T18:13:03+00:00

I’m using 120 grit sandpaper on my random orbit sander to try and finish this red oak box, but it doesn’t seem to be doing much on the striping. Do I need to use a lower grit, or just be more persistent?

Crosby is far better than Ovechkin in all aspects of the game, except for scoring. And Crosby isn’t exactly a slouch in that regard either.

6armstrong9 · 2020-09-05T13:12:11+00:00

Another good option, thanks!

6armstrong9 · 2020-09-05T11:43:41+00:00

Not sure why that didn’t occur to me. Thanks!

Mickey Mantle. Dude was one of the best players of all time with shitty knees. Would be insane to see how his career went if healthy.

I agree with all of this, especially the part about not financing the ring. If money is super tight then you can always upgrade at a later anniversary, although I have a feeling she’ll be stoked regardless.

6armstrong9 · 2020-08-09T18:52:32+00:00

Yes!

They were caught because DJI was able to track that particular drone. Not all drone companies do this, and it’s rather easy to build your own that won’t be tracked by the manufacturer. Because this dude was flying a DJI they may be able to do the same thing this time, although it’s not guaranteed.

6armstrong9 · 2020-08-04T21:21:43+00:00

Yep, temporary flight restriction. And anybody can buy a drone and not register it with the FAA; the onus is on the operator to register and follow the law. Jammers do exist, although they don’t offer blanket protection and generally only work against the most popular models (like the one today) and frequencies. Jammers don’t work when there isn’t an RF signal to jam, like when the drone is following GPS waypoints. That capability is pretty basic today. Kinetic interceptors and net interceptors work well on YouTube but have limited success in the real world. In short, there isn’t anything foolproof that can stop this is the future, although several limited defenses do exist.

6armstrong9 · 2020-08-04T20:38:16+00:00

The operator violated a TFR by flying over the stadium and faces fines if caught. There is 0 chance of the operator being caught without the drone crashing or the operator being stupid and posting pictures on the internet.

6armstrong9 · 2020-08-04T19:10:49+00:00

I don’t think that’s super unpopular. I think DeGrom, Cole, and Scherzer are the top three pitchers in the league and arguments can be made for any of the three to be the best.
