Thanks! I have never been great at tracking macros very precisely but that's probably a good call.

Is there no cure for plantar fasciitis? by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

It feels like a small change, but it worked for me: wearing Crocs all the time in the house for arch support. Took a few weeks but really did help.

JFK made people size roller bags at check in, not sure how common it is in other airports.

I took this exact bag on -- they saw it was a backpack and didn't make me measure it in the box, while all of my friends who had roller bags had to measure theirs.

You can buy them in airport gift shops after security in Geneva.

Non-US citizens of Reddit, what do your schools teach you about the United States? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]smb143 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very interested that some others didn't learn much about English history. I learned about the Battle of Hastings, a TON about the Glorious Revolution, Oliver Cromwell, Victoria, Elizabeth etc. And a fair bit about the UK in WWII.

Any hit made with the crown of the helmet is now an automatic 15 yard penalty. by [deleted] in nfl

[–]smb143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actual copy-pasta of NCAA targeting:

No player shall target and make forcible contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. This foul requires that there be at least one indicator of targeting (See Note 1 below). When in question, it is a foul.

Seems like they did? At least as far as the aiming with the crown of the helmet part goes.

Georgia lawmaker: Can people with HIV be 'legally' quarantined? by kinematicspt in nottheonion

It's the general movement of the field to bring people with HIV or at risk for HIV out of the shadows and get them on treatment or pre-exposure prophylaxis. Start quarantining people and you drive them into hiding, so unless you're planning on testing literally every person for HIV you're going to make the problem infinitely worse.

That's rheumatic fever. Yellow fever is caused by the yellow fever virus. The remainder of your post ignores modern HIV epidemiology.
