Red Sox fans loved him from his first MLB at-bat in 2010—heck, his first swing. Daniel Nava clouted a grand-slam on the first pitch he saw in the majors—endearing him to millions. And, he was popular in Boston right up until the point of his departure to the Rays in 2015. Now a member of the Phillies, the 34-year-old has just earned a not-so-endearing distinction—Top Human Rain Delay. According to FanGraphs.com, Nava took an astounding 29.7 seconds between pitches in 2017—the slowest pace ever documented. Читать дальше...

NEW YORK (AP) — The toys your kids unwrap this Christmas could invite hackers into your home. That Grinch-like warning comes from the FBI, which said earlier this year that toys connected to the internet could be a target for crooks who may listen in on conversations or use them to steal a child's personal information.

UN member-states were poised Thursday to vote on a motion rejecting US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, after President Donald Trump threatened to cut funding to countries that back the measure.

WPIX president Fred Thrower decided to air a "Christmas card." The "card" would just be burning Yule logs. When WPIX first shot the special, they reportedly burnt a $4,000 rug trying to get a better angle.

This drought has given me a fresh appreciation for what life is like for those who share one tap between dozens of families, having to carry what they can for personal use across long distances in heavy buckets. Since this water crisis emerged... Читать дальше...
