As a swimming family with kids that grew up swimming in the Las Vegas valley, the real deficit is that there are so few pools available for kids to swim in that are very far apart or not accessible at certain times of the year. Having grown up in the Los Angeles area, it seemed that the majority of schools there had their own pool in addition to a football field and a gym. That doesn't exist in this town and a move towards that would greatly expand aquatic sports overall for both our developing youth as well as create access for the adult population. This pool is nice to see but serves realistically one team's needs.

A new Olympic-sized outdoor swimming pool will open in Las Vegas this year.

When teaching how to read a shoulder MRI you can start seeing things that seem familiar. In anticipation of the upcoming sequel (November 2026) I’m seeing Godzilla (minus zero). Can’t wait. If you haven’t, go see Godzilla minus one.

Lots of descriptors come to mind but will stick with inspired.

Question, if the food molded to the inside of the "boat" help with insulation and strength of the craft, then as you eat are not making the craft less thermally and structurally stable?

Slept in. Rode to the pool. Swam. Changed at home. Rode to the park. Shoot around. Nice way to start a Sunday morning. Get up. Get out. Have fun.

I play golf (as it were). I don't play often (enough). When I play I gave up on scoring my card (to save lead). When I do play, I tell my friends that since I don't play often I want value for my course fee (by hitting the ball many more times per hole). As well, I get to see wonderfully beautiful parts of the course that most good golfers miss...like the backside of trees, bushes, ponds (and the like). This is the game my father loved and I learned to play just to spend time with him. It's "fun" when you play "well" and that ONE shot that is remarkable per round is what gets you back out there. At least I know how to take care of golfers injuries.

Gotta love this game.



Here is more on Haotong Li's 13th hole to forget in the final round of the 2026 Masters Tournament.

Yay.  Not just one of my favorite players, but one of my favorite people as well.  Glad to hear this.

This was out a couple of months ago on the internet, but this is the most formal presentation of the Stanford information that I have seen. There is also a mention of a German group with some success. A couple of reminders. It usually takes at least 10 years from initial trials to market realization in the US. Also, one of the researchers has ties to a Biotech company (private) in San Diego so no public shares available. I looked a couple of months ago. It will be amazing if true and something that can become commonplace in healthcare.



New groundbreaking research by Stanford researchers has shown to do something that was previously believed not possible: reverse age-related cartilage loss in joints. The findings could drastically change the way arthritis is treated and potentially put an end to the highly common procedure of joint...
