SURPRISE!!
Its not just professional tennis.
From npr:
I didn’t see the whole exchange, but I have been fascinated by the story.
Serena was accused of cheating and reacted, loudly and strongly. She would never cheat to win she said. She would rather lose.
A year ago I discussed two gatherings. This time just one. It represented almost that cross-pollination effect that Fridays blogger likes to note at meetings or other things Gotham. Most times I enjoy a morning full court “game.” This week no court experience but the 4th Annual Gotham Picnic and Softball game.
I wasn't in China but this is a true story...A Chinese village was left with a giant mass of soap suds when a person cleaning plastic bottles let too much soap go down a drain.
I know a lot of people who are addicted to the weather channel and constantly check weather forecasts. Except for softball season when I fear rain outs and tomorrow when the Gotham picnic is scheduled, I ignore the weather forecast. Early in the week rain was forecast and some panicked, but I adopted a wait and see attitude.
We are all exposed to statistics all the time. Among those are the “side effects” of medicines. I generally shy away from medicines. Statistics about the long term side effects have motivated me to reduce the one maintenance drug that was prescribed many years ago. Recently, I was advised to take the new shingles vaccine. The adverse side effects were minimized. Statistical risk is so small.
