I thought this building fit under that height limit, which I believe is right around 400 feet.

Amtrak & Federal: Passenger Rail News
Between Martinsburg and Connellsville, the track is rated for 30 MPH or 40 MPH for a majority of the route. I was under the impression that this would apply to any type of train. Would a modern trainset be allowed to exceed that speed limit?

What good would higher speed trains do on these routes? Isn't the speed limited by the track, not the engine?

So is that the end of the dining car as we know it? That's my favorite part of taking the train.

They did that only once last night...out by half court in the second half. He got right of it right away and I believe they then turned the ball over. So of course, we didn't try it again after that.

Speaking of game changing plays...I'm not sure we win if JR doesn't steal the ball from Oladipo and score late in the 4th.

He was 5-16 shooting, though. Clarkson has been a huge disappointment so far in the playoffs as he has been a total non-factor. Hood is about what we expected...a guy who can hit some shots but not much else. Nance also as expected...not much better than TT on offense, but a little better defender. I thought Hill played a decent game while he was in there, but he got a lot of fouls fast. Calderon doesn't look very good either. Jeff Green is abysmal right now. I say we swap in Cedi. At least he'll play solid defense.

Weather
It's pretty sad when you look at the 10 day forecast and (after today) you think "well, that looks a lot better" because it's supposed to be mostly sunny and highs in the upper 40s and 50s. Then you realize not a single day is over the average (and most are 10-15 degrees below it). This is probably the worst spring I can remember.

Orange Village: Pinecrest
Multiple of those are likely a factor, but my guess is that number 3 is the biggest. I don't think his business model was as profitable as it used to be, so he's looking to switch it up. He seemed to be pretty happy in Coventry and was there 27 years, but I'm guessing B. A. Sweetie wanted/required a newer/bigger store and he needed to team up with someone to try a new concept.

We sure sucked today. But the good news is that we somehow hung around even though we couldn't make an open shot all game. I think we win this series as long as we don't have a couple more off nights like we did today.

Directly from the page about these stats (https://www.basketball-reference.com/about/bpm.html)... I maintain that he was never a great defender. Better than average maybe, but surely not worth paying top dollar for, especially considering his deficiencies on offense.

I think San Fransisco is more libertarian than progressive these days.

When he switches out on guards it usually ends up meaning the other team scores, whether it's the mismatch with his man being guarded by one of our guards or their guard making him look silly (just because his ability to stay with a quick little guy is better than average for a big man doesn't mean it's good). Also, you're trading a handful of offensive rebounds for no other offensive talent. And that's not to mention how awful he is rebounding at the other end of the floor. He's an undersized big man who has no ability to score outside of 5 feet. His hustle maybe should have earned him $5-$8 million a year, but you shouldn't get elite money with his skill set. Now we're paying top dollar for a guy that we can hardly keep out on the floor. I thought this was all very predictable at the time.

Not even close. I didn't think he was worth half that even when he was playing well in previous years.

Cleveland Cavs Discussion
It's the second time he's done the exact same thing. He's not only an overrated basketball player, he's a distraction to the team as well.

We should have gotten rid of Tristan instead of giving him an outrageous contract.

Yes, thank you very much, Rich. I haven't had a single redirect since you made the change.

Yep, those. I have resorted to leaving the media volume all the way down to avoid embarrassment.

I actually just read that article this morning and tried that out. I still got just as many ads on UO with it enabled.
