At 9:18, 3rd period of the Finland-Switzerland women's ice hockey QF game, the ice crew came to clean the ice during a pause
What follows is the funniest use of the slo-mo alternate angle tech I've seen them use during these Olympics of one of the crew members falling

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

I love when science blows my mind. I’ve never been an ethanol fan, but this statistic really drives the argument to stop subsidizing corn farmers to create a fuel additive that reduces our fuel efficiency and harms many older and small engines.
Next time someone asks you about energy and land use, maybe remind them that the ~35 million acres that currently grow corn for ethanol in the US could produce ~15 PWh per year of electricity from solar photovoltaics. That's ~3.5 times more than *total annual generation from all US power plants*.

For years I’ve been begging for a comprehensive look at Carpenter Media and their whole deal and it dropped this morning; tales about an existential threat to local news in my hometown and others like it. From the Alaska resignations to mass layoffs to unrealistic quotas and ghost papers.
Carpenter Media's ominous takeover of local news.
In just a few years, a publisher based in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, has become the country’s fourth-largest newspaper operator. Some reporters wonder if it isn’t the cruelest.

I have some bad news. One, if you need to use ChatGPT for your graduate application letter, you are not ready for graduate school.
Two, no, not "everyone is doing it" and those who don't do it aren't "losing out." ChatGPT is not an advantage.

I’m always surprised how many lifelong Alaskans have never been to Juneau. Come visit!!
Visiting Juneau during the legislative session can bring opportunities to talk with your lawmakers, but while you're there, don't miss out on the capital city's natural beauty, great restaurants and other attractions, says travel writer Scott McMurren. www.adn.com/alaska-life/...
