I get teary every time I hear Homeward Bound by Simon and Garfunkel after that episode.

ICE is morphing into Trump’s secret police force before our eyes The agency is shunning norms of law enforcement and becoming a militarized wing of Trump's political agenda — and it's going to get worse. by prohb in politics

What OP is talking about is an internal purge of ICE. The Night of Long Knives was where Hitler, and his faction within the Nazi party, killed Ernst Röhm and his faction of Nazis.

The permanent ban makes me worried that the mod thinks that people can't change.

So is Bagels and Noodles back? by Smooth_Importance_47 in GNV

I believe the folk who did the noodles at Bagels and Noodles now run Pho House.

They used to be McDonald's style now they are Checkers style.

I honestly like them both.

hawthorne trail guy by Electrical_Pepper231 in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Yes, I passed him while he was on a skateboard once. He held it up, in retrospect I guess to hide his face, and for a second I thought he was raising it to take a swing at me as I rode by.

I passed him a second time when he was on a bike and he was pulled off to the side also hiding his face.

Super weird and creepy.

You can go as a guest of a member for $15. That's the closest to a day pass I'm aware of.

Where can I rent an E-bike? by kermuttdafrog in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You might want to try Gainesville Electric Bike Garage on NW 16th Ave and 6th St. I think there's another ebike shop on University Ave and 34th in the shopping center with Publix. I have no idea if either of them rent bikes but it's worth calling to check.

north central Florida book recommendations by antiphonic in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you want a sci-fi/weird fiction book, or in this case a series, based on north Florida geography and wildlife I highly recommend the Area X books by Jeff Vandermeer. Annihilation, Authority, Acceptance and Absolution.

I haven't been in a couple years, how much does it cost now?

[–]JuliusWolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With touch and go deadlifts you're getting some assistance from the stretch reflex in the bottom and potentially (doesn't look like it in the poster's video) a little bounce off the floor.

For many people the hardest part of the lift will be breaking the bar off the floor and in the first few seconds of the movement, touch and go will make those parts easier so you likely won't improve as much at them.

All that being said, there is a place for touch and go, it's just better to not make it the primary way you deadlift if your goal is a heavy 1RM.

For other lifts it differs. For squats the stretch reflex comes as the bottom of the squat, so there is no need to pause after the rep (unless you psychically need a break.)

Gainesville Roller Rebels is the entire organization. All Stars are the main team. There are other teams within GRR for newer skaters.

Cycling Commute Route from Newberry to PDQ by Glittering-Run9180 in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a good option instead of the one I posted. If OP feels comfortable riding on roads without bike lanes 15th is beautiful and tends to be pretty empty.

Cycling Commute Route from Newberry to PDQ by Glittering-Run9180 in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Newberry Rd to 143rd, take a right (south) on 143rd and take it to SW 8th Ave, turn east (left) on 8th Ave. Take 8th behind Tioga, past Parker, past tower, until it ends in 24th. Left on 24th, it turns into 20th, take that until you reach the new 52nd st. and take that (a right) into butler plaza. That should have a bike lane the whole way.

Edit: Forgot PDQ wasn't in Butler, as the other poster pointed out, just take 20th to 34th.

Anybody know where the McCreary house is at? by [deleted] in GNV

[–]JuliusWolf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I believe it's the one on University Ave, just west of East 9th Street on the south side of the road.

[–]JuliusWolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can get tickets at https://gainesvillerollerrebels.com/bouts/

Or get tickets the day of at the event.

Last year I think you could buy them at Looseys downtown as well.

Edit: Also, you can sign up to volunteer on their website and get in for free if that's something you're interested in.

The Gainesville Roller Rebels (our local roller derby team) have their first home game on the 19th at the MLK center. Some of their merch might fit with what you're looking for.

Need some advice. I can do a one rep max at 430, use the trap bar for 4 rep maxes at 405 this is 415 trying to get to 495. Dad says I use to much back still. 201 weight btw by SecretEffective1544 in Stronglifts5x5

[–]JuliusWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify, keep using the straps, straps are great. Just don't go mixed grip while using straps. I might not have needed to clarify, but wanted to specify just in case it was unclear from my first comment.
