I'd hardly describe 1.5 miles in 14 minutes as a "brisk jog".

He really does live in his own fantasy bubble.

If he had a normal job and spoke like this he'd be sent for help.

Nuclear tests are easy for scientists around the world to detect.

Everything about this story is odd. A 3am explosion in a secure 4th floor hallway between neuroscience labs? Dudes with hoodies and masks?

A lie, grift, and corruption all in one answer. Impressive.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

So there were, y’know…edits?

Only about a third of the Trump interview aired on "60 Minutes." CBS has published the transcript of the complete interview here —> www.cbsnews.com/news/read-fu...

The great thing about a nuclear testing moratorium is that it is really easy for scientists around the world to assess if it is being broken. Nobody claims it is.

Lying about not knowing who he is. Taking his money. Pardoning him.

Each of these should be disqualifying for the presidency.

Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

www.irishexaminer.com/sport-column...

And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.

Good for the Journal for posting this primer (gift link).

My only quibble is the word "complex" in the title. Perhaps "central" or "dominant" better reflect the article?

The Korean military band played "YMCA" on his arrival. They served him hamburgers and ketchup. They gave him a gold crown.

This isn't a state visit. This is a birthday party for a five-year-old.

“All we were doing was bringing the music we like to a mass audience. We hope we’ll be home soon. It’s what we’re dreaming of most,” Stoptime vocalist Diana Loginova tells me. She & the other members of the band are still in jail after their street concerts. My report from St Petersburg.

Diana Loginova sang songs critical of the Kremlin. The 18-year-old and her bandmate are now in court.
