Singapore is definitely an interesting place-

Religious breakdown-
31% Buddhism, 20% no religion, 19% Christian, 15% Islam, 9% Taoism

Singapore is the only country in Asia with a AAA sovereign credit rating from all major rating agencies.

Homeownership rate is 88%, despite being the 3rd highest density country in the world.

Has 4 official languages.

One of the longest life expectancies in the world and 3rd lowest level of corruption only behind Denmark and Finland.

Now MLB has the best one ever, the player doesn't even have to make a 401K contribution.

is not required to make a contribution to receive this benefit. Instead, they receive this benefit based on that year's service time.


For a player to be eligible for a team contribution they must achieve a quarter of the year of MLB service time in that season. That equates to 43 days on the active roster.

Here is an example of what this looked like in 2023 for players who had a full year of service time.



$22,500 max pre-tax contribution* not required

$40,000 MLB contribution

$3,500 max post-tax contribution* not required


he created eyeball, eyesore, eyewink, he did a lot with the eyes.

Dawn was a verb, he was the first to use it as a noun. "The dawn is overcast, the morning lowers" Before than it was used only as a verb, It dawned on him that he was early.


He was also the first to use elbow as a verb.

They don't save much if they cut either. Flacco's contract is 3 MM guaranteed and Pickett is in the final year of his rookie deal at 2.65 guaranteed.
yes, I was asleep last night dreaming and my wife's dog jumped on the bed and woke me up. It was a good dream I had just gotten drafted and I didn't even get to find out which sport.

There’s a reason underrated GM Mickey Loomis has been on the job for a quarter century. Good chance he just about perfectly married value to need with his first three selections, who might all be starters in 2025: First-round OT Kelvin Banks Jr., second-round QB Tyler Shough and third-round DL Vernon Broughton. Third-round S Jonas Sanker and fourth-round LB Danny Stutsman could find themselves in prominent roles – and making an impact – soon enough.


Best draft in the division

Cowboys Troy Aikman and Steve Walsh
Redskins RG3 and Kirk Cousins
Broncos Matt Mauck and Bradlee Van Pelt
Packers Brian Brohm and Matt Flynn
49ers took Giovanni Carmazzi and Tim Ratty, one before one after Tom Brady

I don't like Sanders, he doesn't have the same speed after his injury

The port took in a shipment of “sodium perchlorate rocket fuel” in March, the private security firm Ambrey said. The fuel is part of a shipment from China by two vessels to Iran first reported in January by the Financial Times. The fuel was going to be used to replenish Iran's missile stocks, which had been depleted by its direct attacks on Israel during the war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

"The fire was reportedly the result of improper handling of a shipment of solid fuel intended for use in Iranian ballistic missiles," Ambrey said.






It is believed that Iran left the chemicals at the port, because they were afraid that Israel would target them if they moved it to a military base. So they left it at a commerical port.
