New classroom furniture
I recently switched to an adjustable stand up desk at work and my routine is to start the day at the stand position and move down to sitting position after lunch if I need to. I’ve found that it’s really important to wear well-cushioned comfortable shoes — preferably sneakers. Traded out my oxfords and bluchers for a pair of classy New Balance’s. Additionally, having a padded mat to stand on is a must. Mine comes with a choice of three balancing spheres of varying hardness the size of tennis balls set on a grooved canal running vertically on the mat. I really like the setup. The fact that I can justify wearing trainers to work is a bonus.

Hardwood and round holes 2K18
I'm not sure I disagree with you. Giannis is an uncanny talent mixed with freakish length and springiness. He's proving to be an elite scorer, with excellent handles, passing, and defense. He's still developing a jumper, but so was Magic in his early years. Him and Anthony Davis are clearly the best players under 25. Karl-Anthony Towns is almost there, and maybe another year with Thibs will get his defense where it needs to be. Keep an eye out for Ben Simmons. He's clearly behind Giannis, AD, and KAT, but the early returns are favorable. He's got the same skillset and body type as Giannis - though not as athletic or explosive. Porzingis is a 7-3" unicorn, but he's getting abused by guys like Draymond Green. Embiid has the makings to be the best pure center since Shaq - with the comedic wit of an elite level class clown. If only he can stay on the floor.

I had a similar reaction but with different choices. 1. RPG 2. Strategy 3. Sports 11. Everything else But since I had to number them all separately it's not a representative picture of my particular preferences. Ditto.

What's on the idiot box?
My third favorite baseball writer wrote about Star Trek: Discovery. https://www.theringer.com/tv/2017/9/25/16360856/star-trek-discovery-review-cbs-alex-kurtzman-sonequa-martin-green I agree; it's really good. Better than Voyager and Enteprise. More serialized and action-packed than previous Treks --and not so idealistic. Different.

To be clear, they're not protesting the national anthem, or the flag, or the military. They are protesting the current state of racial inequality in America, and to a large extent the President and his rhetoric.

At this point, I think the anthem protests have morphed into a symbolic catch-all for racial inequality in the Trump-era; and now a protest against Trump and those he is empowering with his actions/non-actions.

That's a bad take. For one thing, most Americans care far more about sports than healthcare. If anything, we react more from out of apathy when they take away our entertainment. So it's a bad take because everyone PREFERS looking at the wrong thing? It was a joke. But then again, everything is a distraction for this President. He makes abhorrent statements every day that yes -- maybe it's hard for the ONE BIG THING to stick. But then what is the big thing? Everything is big. He's the President. His statements carry weight. Wanna talk about healthcare? Cool, McCain defected from party line -- presumably joined by Murkowski, Collins, and perhaps Rand Paul. Right now, social/racial inequality and its convergence in sports is the current big thing. If anything, this may have a bigger impact on national discussion and political discourse than any topic that most Americans will talk about in breakrooms, barbecues, and church.

I sense the answer's right here... Or perhaps a simple business reason like they made the best offer. Yeah, but can they pay off gaming sites to make onsite visits and write nostalgic fluff pieces on their old catalogue?- Hardwood and round holes 2K18
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20793120/new-york-knicks-agree-trade-carmelo-anthony-oklahoma-city-thunder Carmelo to OKC for Enes Kanter, Dougie McBuckets, and a 2018 2nd Rounder. It's only been four days since Kanter said OKC was family. Of course, OKC will still be the fourth seed in the West with their three ISO heavy stars. Even money they'll be last in the league in passes per game. Cranky LeBron can't will 54 regular season lame duck wins with IT out till January. - Politics - Jason X
