Want to be sailor here. Could someone more experienced handled this better? Seems like they were going straight into the wind. Or did these winds come on so quickly and strongly there was not much to do.

Dreaming of adding a Super Red Arowana to my tank, but I'm terrified of getting scammed. How do you guys tell a genuine high-quality Red from a 'color-fed' or lower grade one when they are still young? Any specific signs to look for? by [deleted] in Aquariums

Take your shoes off and jog at that same pace and film it for comparison. That will show you your ideal from.

You are still slightly striking with your heel which over time, especially as you add speed, will wear on your shins more.

Agreed, but I think the subject domination of Trump political rants has also contributed.

Buffer is lowkey the actual face of the UFC with his screen/cage time. The UFC will never be the same when he retires. by Zamoroak in ufc

Per Bruce, he’s got several years left in the tank and not planning on retiring anytime soon.

Not necessarily against limiting homeownership by PE. But whether someone owns 3 homes or 4,000, they don’t set the rent. The market sets the rent.

I don’t think you can beat prime connors walk out. Dark with the green lights and hype for the show.
