So I’ll take any opportunity I can to minimize typing and formatting. These three Google Docs features speed up my process exponentially. Best of all, they’re really easy to use. Voice typing If you can talk, you can type—and much faster than actually typing. Google Docs has a great… Source link

It was a rough day for the Kansas City Royals when it was announced that 10 of their players wouldn’t be able to play in a road series against the Toronto Blue Jays because they are unvaccinated, but arguably the lowest moment came from one of the franchise’s clubhouse leaders. Two-time All-Star Whit Merrifield was among the many players who explained their decision after the news broke, but he was the only one who implied the decision was conditional on playing for a contender: From Anne… Source link

Following inflation data showing worse-than-expected price increases in June, bond markets are now flashing signs of deeper investor concerns about recession. On Wednesday, the U.S. 10-year note yield slipped as much as 0.21% lower than the yield on the 2-year, the largest negative spread between the two securities since 2000. A yield curve inversion, in which short-dated bonds yield more than longer-dated ones, shows a reversal in typical risk attitudes, as investors usually expect more… Source link

“I should be on a postage stamp, because that’s the only way I’ll ever get licked,” Muhammad Ali once said. Peter Villegas, the chairman of the California State Athletic Commission, joined the board of the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Kentucky, in February.

She traveled to his Los… Source link

The voices echoed across the dwindling reaches of St. Andrews, the accents different but the sentiments the same as in America: “COME ON TOY-GAH!” As the sun set on a long, slow day in Scotland, Tiger Woods plodded his way through the last few holes of the Old Course, frustration evident on his face, in his shoulders, in his slow walk. He ended the day at 6-over, a rugged 78 that left him buried near the bottom of the leaderboard. This wasn’t how it was supposed to go for Woods, not how he… Source link

In 1995, less than two months after actor Dave Coulier‘s hit show Full House aired its final episode, the actor was stunned to hear a song from ex Alanis Morissette. It was “You Oughta Know,” the first hit from Morisette’s blockbuster album Jagged Little Pill, released in July of that year. “I’m driving in Detroit and I’ve got my radio on, and I hear the hook for ‘You Oughta Know’ come on the radio,” Coulier explained on Tuesday’s episode of SiriusXM Faction Talk, hosted by Jim Norton and Sam… Source link
