Yankees were just start of Cristian Javier's run of domination

Image
PHILADELPHIA — The Yankees can take solace. It wasn’t just them. Cristian Javier does not discriminate. At some point in 2022, he basically stopped giving up hits, and it wasn’t just against Aaron Judge and Co. Javier has a fastball that hardly awes with its velocity. But it is illustrious because it is an illusion. He slings it from a low three-quarters arm slot with lots of backspin, giving the optical illusion that it is rising simply because it is not descending as other fastballs do. The Phillies actually had been strong against fastballs up in the zone this season. Not this version. You can’t hit what you can’t see. And the Phillies of Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber were as helpless as the Yankees of Judge and Anthony Rizzo. The Phillies, in fact, went from in control of this World Series and supported by a joyous home crowd to being on the wrong end of history and being booed. During Game 4. Of the World Series. Th

Mainstream media gives GOP 87% negative press in midterm run-up: study

Image
Republican candidates are facing substantially more scrutiny in the mainstream media than Democrats leading up to the midterm elections, with news outlets airing negative coverage of the GOPers 87% of the time, a new study found. Democrats, meanwhile, were on the receiving end of bad press 67% of the time, according to the study conducted by the conservative Media Research Center . The study of ABC, CBS and NBC’s nightly newscasts also found that President Biden is drawing far less criticism in 2022 than former President Donald Trump did during the 2018 midterm elections.  Trump accounted for 48% of all midterm campaign airtime on nightly newscasts in 2018, more than all the congressional and gubernatorial candidates combined, and it was mostly negative, according to MRC.  Herschel Walker hasn’t made many fans in the media while on the campaign trail for the Georgia Senate seat against Raphael Warnock.

George Will pleads with Dems not to run 'past his prime' Biden, 'unqualified' Harris in '24

Image
Venerable columnist George Will begged Democrats Wednesday not to allow President Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris to seek the White House in 2024, warning that nominating either would “insult and imperil the nation.” “​​Biden is not just past his prime; even adequacy is in his past,” Will wrote in the Washington Post. ​The 81-year-old Will​, a longtime Republican who left the party in 2016 after Donald Trump won its presidential nomination, voted for Biden in 2020, and describes himself as “unaffiliated,” said the president’s false statement last month that the student loan forgiveness plan was passed by Congress marked a breaking point. “Meeting recently with some progressive activists, Biden said his $426 billion student loan forgiveness was accomplished by ​’​a law​’​ that he had ​’​just signed​’​: ​’​I got it passed by a vote or two.​’​ No. He. Did. Not​,” Will wrote in the column. ​”​Biden was not merely again embellishing his ach

Oregon families find razor blades in Halloween candy: police

Image
At least three Oregon families found a nasty trick inside their children’s Halloween treat bags. Small razor blades were found hidden inside Halloween candy given to kids within a 5-block stretch in the city of Eugene: from Tyler Street to Friendly Street between West 24th and West 27th Avenues, police said in a statement. “The razor appears to be something similar to a pencil sharpener blade,” the department said. The first family to report the small blade had checked their child’s candy before letting the treater dig in, a practice the Eugene Police Department had encouraged parents to practice prior to the holiday. One father who took his kids trick-or-treating on Friendly Street told KEZI 9 News that he plans on buying back his children’s candy rather than take a chance on finding one of the blades. “I feel disturbed. I wish we were in a different place,” David Lord said.  Other city residents told the outlet the number of trick

Republicans rip Biden's 'divisive' democracy speech

Image
President Biden’s Wednesday night speech was met with derision by a number of prominent Republicans, with some calling it the “most divisive” address ever given by a commander-in-chief. Others GOPers suggested Biden’s remarks, where he slammed “extreme MAGA Republicans” and urged Americans to vote for Democrats in the Nov. 8 midterm elections in order to “preserve democracy,” were an attempt to deflect from the administration’s failed policies.  “I listened to the president’s speech, I don’t remember hearing anything about inflation, about gas, about border, about fentanyl, about crime, or not even the 98 individuals on the border on the terrorist watchlist they have caught,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Wednesday.  “President Biden is trying to divide and deflect at a time when America needs to unite — because he can’t talk about his policies that have driven up the cost of living,” McCarthy wrote

Why men's and women's shirt buttons on different sides

Image
Not all shirts are created equal. People are just realizing that women’s shirt buttons are on the left side, while men’s are on the right — with many questioning these details. “I *just* found out that shirt buttons are on the left for women and right for me. Wtf!!!!” one Twitter user exclaimed . “I was today years old when I learned that women’s shirts have buttons on the left side!” wrote another. So what gives? There are a few theories that date back ages. One goes that wealthy women didn’t dress themselves — they had servants do it for them. Assuming that most people are right-handed, the buttons on women’s clothes were sewn so that someone else could fasten them. People are just realizing that women’s shirt buttons are on the left side, while men’s are on the right.

Attack on Black teens at South Africa swimming pool leads to charges

Image
[ad_1] Comment on this story Comment Police in South Africa charged a White man with attempted murder and have charged two others with assault after an attack on Black teenagers trying to use a swimming pool while on vacation sparked widespread outrage. Video of the incident, which was shared widely on social media, appeared to show a White man choking and striking a Black teen in the face before pushing another Black teenager into the pool and gripping him in a headlock, seemingly to try to push him underwater. Kgokong Nakedi, 18, told reporters that he and a 13-year-old cousin were assaulted on Christmas Day by White people at a vacation resort they were visiting in Bloemfontein, in the Free State province. Nakedi said it started with verbal harassment as the people tried to prevent the teens from using the pool, then escalated into assault. Nakedi could not be immediately reached for comment early Thursday. “They harassed us because we are Black,” Nakedi told News Central TV. “
