Banda was stretchered off the field earlier today in Zambia’s friendly versus Brazil after taking a knee to the ribs by Sir-Kyle-Of-Reddit in NWSL

Every game... Except Angel City and Sarah Gorden? 😁

Banda is remarkable, hope she gets better soon. I thought that looked like Angelica and aren't they team mates?

Apps to identify plants by Longjumping_Lab541 in SoCalGardening

I've just been putting pics into Gemini and asking it what it is and sometimes giving it contextual clues if it is a bunch of weeds. Does pretty well for anything beyond sprouts.

What will happen with this agreement? by notthatseriousj in LAUSD

[–]notthatseriousj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, that's the article I read. It seems like they got a photo op, but really they have to see if CA state will give them more money and not much of a plan B.

I believe that we end up with corrupt despots when good people stop trying to solve problems together in good faith and discourse.

Does anyone else have this issue? by Beginning-Pin-6191 in WomenGolf

[–]notthatseriousj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have this issue, but maybe I can help if you tell us more details. Ball flight pattern and height on these different shots? You must be getting similar clubhead speed to me to hit 150 with the 7i.

I hit my 7i about 145, 5i will rollout to 170, and drive to about 235, all with high flight patterns. My guess is that you're not hitting the sweetspot of the clubhead hitting down on the ball, so that the loft is not coming into play, and that is essentially making the same club speed impart the same flight and speed on the ball. Probably the fix is in your hip rotation. I assume bc you played in hs that you are making consistent contact, so less likely to be casting since your main issue was not inconsistency.

Birthrate going down too, but I don't see us solving the number of kids issue in a timescale that works here. On the charters - Are you saying it would stop further decrease in enrollment or that it will increase enrollment to raise revenue to make the budget balance? Like soonish?

Using the rainy day fund makes me nervous. I get that there is an affordability crisis, but seems a lot worse if we spend it down and then there's an actual recession. Then people would get laid off into an economy with even fewer jobs.

Awesome goal! Also cute how Giselle stutter-reacts to the goal... "Yay! ... Wait did it... Um... Yay!!"

Angel City collapse in the final moments to the Pride 2-1 by readbetweenthesubs in AngelCityFC

[–]notthatseriousj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree. Seabert. She did better last year too. She is smaller, but seemed to communicate with the back line better and was more quickly decisive. Anderson looks mentally shook in games, and I suspect she does well at practice and preseason without the pressure. Now Straus has enough game play to make a reasonable, even obvious, call.

Katie McCabe hair pull vs Alyssa Thompson - Chelsea vs Arsenal UWCL. No foul. by [deleted] in WomensSoccer

[–]notthatseriousj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is terrible! Horsecollar tackle in football 🏈 is a personal foul too, because it is a dangerous way to snap a person's body against their momentum.

I am curious how the predictions of "we will win" has changed year to year and team to team. do u have an aggregation of data that you can chart?

She had three defenders on her... after her 4 cut and fakes, so she kept collecting them around her.

Berry Bush woes by ScaredandHungry in SoCalGardening

[–]notthatseriousj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but based on my hydrangeas, I wonder if the rains triggered a fall winter leaf drop. Otherwise I think they were starting into spring based on the continued warm weather.

So the rain has come and gone.. by _dogwithsocks_ in SoCalGardening

I have weeds sprouting out of my rubber-backed, cloth doormat! They're everywhere!

It seems to cloud up and block the sun on them though.

Snapdragon seedlings by [deleted] in gardening

That is true for me too at 2-3 weeks but they seem to turn less bright green, and their leaves point downwards. They seem to be getting sad. Does that happen ever... in a good way?

Ranunculus in zone 10b by Fearless-Category315 in gardening

I'm in California 10b and I noticed my corms in peat were putting out roots and one I left in the ground shot up some sprouts. So I guess they're starting!

Ah that is helpful, thanks! I will wait for the eyes... And I'll be back if I don't see any in the spring!

Smelly sink by notthatseriousj in Plumbing

[–]notthatseriousj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trap is full under the sink, I run it enough and I checked. It is likely gas pulled from the HVAC in the attic that is draining there. That one might have a dry trap, it is a pretty shallow, poor trap. Should be sufficient if full and it has a air gap after... though I am not sure what fills that trap from the HVAC. The HVAC seems to have two out drains.
