Does this wipe out the gains since Trump was elected?

One-year DJIA return is still 20+% even after the 1,000 point drop.

This is like bitcoin!

Before I get into my account to buy something at -1,500, the index recovers nearly half of that drop...

Is that a grave? Was it Hlinka?

Yes, he was the coach of the 1998 team. Interestingly, on the first group picture, Hlinka's face is peeking behind Rucinsky's (button-down suit with the blue tie) shoulder

Who is a decorated NHL all-star goalie who thought he could be a brewery owner, restaurant owner, hotel owner - and lost $5M trying to be all of that? And, even more importantly, defrauded his suppliers in the process (about $1M) - so he now faces between 5 and 10 years? All of that while his ex-tea...

A few more details on Jagr (HC Kladno) vs. Nedved (HC Benatky) Saturday's clash in the Czech second league: Kladno won 7:2, even though it was just 2:2 after two periods. Jagr ended with three assists and OVER 20 MINUTES of time on ice!! Even more importantly, Nedved (whose jersey will be retired to...

Marie Antoinette gets a bad rap.

I know. But, like every other great comedian, I always pass on historical accuracy in the interest of a good zinger.

And, like every other great comedian, I also steal jokes...

If I am ever the MC at an even where Paul Ryan is given a Lifetime Achievement Award, this is what I go with: "Paul Ryan’s here. One of my favorite politicians, known for going to extremes to get exactly what he wants. The great Queen Marie Antoinette once said, when told that the peasants had no br...

Unless there is some placekicker or wily slow throwing pitcher still hanging in there I think Jagr was the last person my age (he turns 46 this month, I turn 47 in May) still playing a major team sport.

Jaromir Jagr was the LAST active player from the original (PC) NHL 94 by EA Sports. Jagr played alongside Lemieux and Kevin Stevens and had 90-point rating (Wayne Gretzky "only" 87). https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=cs&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=https%3A%2F%2Fbonusweb.idnes.cz%2Fnh...

"It’s all a trick!"
said Tomas as he sat on a stump where the snow lay piled.
“I don’t believe in the Big Board Change…"

Don't get me wrong, I quite fancy Gabbard, for completely non-political reasons.

Yes but how will she age on the fiona apple scale

I don't think they are far apart in terms of age, are they?

Yesterday, it was Formula One. Today, the whole country of Canada! (Gender-neutral anthem approved.)

Jagr had his first press conference. Interesting points: - he WILL try to play on Saturday for Kladno in order to log the mandatory 15 games needed for Extraleague promotion tournament, despite getting an unbelievably painful shot into his knee (a combination of Jagr's own blood and some medicine) i...

If you ever wondered whether PC standalone version of SAS Enterprise Guide 7.11 HF2 can open a 150 GB file - then the answer is YES (easily, not even 1 minute wait)!

Hooray SAS...

The 5k world record is 12:00...

you must have just read the same Reddit thread that I did.

I'd give that joke a perfect 5/7, except I don't understand it (really...)

By the way, that's damned impressive. A 3000 in 12:00 is really solid.

Thanks! Unfortunately, that was (a) 30+ years (b) two arthroscopic knee surgeries and, most importantly (c) almost 50 lbs. (and that's AFTER I dropped about 40 since the birth of my 4-year old!) ago!

Long time ago, in one of CMU gyms, I saw two Asian dudes playing the most competitive game of badminton possible . The level of athleticism, speed, etc. was unbelievable. After that, I will never joke about the mighty sport of badminton. Plus, it's a dangerous sport. My Taiwanese colleague's brother...

Track: high-school (long-distance running Champion of Czechoslovakia at the tender age of 17 8-) ) Whatcha run? Curious how far off I was :slug: I don't think we can compare.
