Please read "The Spy and The Traitor." Interesting nonfiction on a Russian that spied for Britain during the cold war.

Cricket has had this for years where a ball knicking a bat or a stump is visible and enforceable by a device sitting on the outside of the cricket field. Same with Tennis that has been policing line and ball for years. The technological challenge has been solved, it's a matter of will now.

The passing hecame boring as soon as DRS was enabled. The pre-drs overtakes and switchbacks were entertaining to watch before we went back to drs-drivebys on the straights.

Or, hear me out, Schumacher. Even if it is only to thumb his nose at Toto.

In South Africa corporations are allowed to purchase residential housing, but banks won't finance any bonds on the property unless the property is rezoned as for commercial use. The town / city planners won't easily rezone residential as commercial.

On top of that many local councils are blocking the construction of commercial office buildings and requiring the property be rezoned as residential and thing like apartments are built instead. I know of a few properties bought up to turn into office space that has been denied a construction license and the project stalled as the companies behind the project work to get investors to back an apartment complex.

It's sad they are so untrustworthy. Their car looks to have decent pace of late.

This is a new Fernando. Killer on track, fatherly figure with his team. I would love a win for him this season.
