It cuts the other way as well. It's incredibly easy to file suit against larger corporations (e.g. your landlord in small claims) and just represent yourself and be confident all you're potentially out is the court filing fee. I've personally done it twice and settled before it went to trial; without the American rule there would be no way I could risk having them take it to trial and pay their fees.

I believe there actually often is a calendar association but only because the US fiscal year starts October 1st, and funding legislation needs to be enacted before then.

This was controlled for as stated in the article:

> The researchers compared outcomes for patients within the same hospitals who were cared for by doctors with different exam scores. This allowed the researchers to eliminate, or at least minimize, the effect of differences in patient populations, hospital resources, and other variations that might influence the odds of patient death or readmission, independent of a doctor’s performance.

If you are running less than 30 miles per week or so and don't have multiple injury risk factors (e.g. prior history of injury, being older, female) you can fairly safely run at whatever pace you'd like and know that running more and running faster will help you become faster.

The idea of "zone 2 training" that is peddled sometimes on social media makes no sense if you're not running consistent mileage and actively looking to run faster. At that point, the idea is that you're minimizing injury risk in between 2+ hard efforts per week, while still getting in the miles.

I think you deserve your 50 cents for this post.

I'm guessing this definition of a safe space (e.g. able to say what you want, with possible racism included) isn't what nonconservatives would label a safe space.

No one at this level is playing tournaments without massive preparation. This is especially true at the WCC where both sides have not just one but teams of seconds to help with prep.

Ding has been a shadow of himself ever since he won the world championship and if anything has been seen as the weakest world champion since 2006.

"Zone" training is primarily a way for high mileage runners to get the physical adaptation of running with lower risk of injury on easy days. If you're running < 20 mpw there should be minimal risk of injury and you should focus on increasing mileage and not on heart rate (which is highly variable depending on the person anyway, and should be properly determined with a LT test).

Notation has changed over the years. Even twenty years ago you could pick up (admittedly dated) books using descriptive notation (e.g. P-K4). It's pretty clear what is the accepted standard for notation today though.

The article's headline is a little misleading. It is only referring to college graduates that are "underemployed," i.e. have a job not requiring college-level skills in general, as opposed to a job that is unrelated to their major.

Your case would not count as underemployment (of which examples are office support, retail sales, food service).

Simon is Sacha's cousin (according to Wikipedia).

I'm guessing it's more about the faculty being hard and/or expensive to retain for those majors.
