A video was posted by Lititz Borough Police Department on its Facebook page showing a envelope filled solely with dimes. The hilarious video was posted on January 11, with the caption: “Thank you, thank you, thank you to the anonymous parking ticket receiver that filled our coffers with dimes!” Fortunately the police department was able to see the funny side of this passive aggression, joking: “The fact that you, Mr....
I just remember watching the transformation of that, watching each one leave and thinking “One day I will have one of those.” They’re just so beautiful. But my husband has always said “They’re going to break down on you. You can’t have an old one.” So I guess you could say it was a marriage compromise waiting on the new ones. As soon as they came out, it was a done deal for me....
At Kentucky Speedway, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is facing an unusual racing weekend. MORE: Starting lineup | 10 drivers to watch | Kurt’s warning for Logano First, there’s a triple dose of change with a revamped 1.5-mile track (it’s been repaved with the banking in turns 1 and 2 changed), an aero package designed to lower downforce and side force on the cars and a new set of Goodyear tires at the track (the lefts from Las Vegas and the rights from Michigan, except with a single tread)....
A flat tire. MORE: Busch wins | Race results | Bowyer mad | Hamlin misses race with illness Tire problems forced drivers on to pit road at least a dozen times during the race at Auto Club Speedway, whose surface hasn’t been repaved since its 1997 opening. That makes for good multiple grooves and good racing, but it also has resulted in bumps in the tracks. "I hate Goodyear was not prepared today for what happened," said Jeff Gordon, who had a problem late in the race and saw a chance to win slip away when Clint Bowyer had a flat tire and spun with two laps remaining....
As strange as all this sounds, 2007 is the year of role reversals in the car business. After all, this is the year when most analysts figure Toyota will overtake GM to become the world’s largest automaker. But GM—emboldened by signs of a nascent comeback—isn’t conceding. “We’re not giving up just because somebody got a calculator for Christmas and worked some numbers,” says GM CEO Rick Wagoner. “This is going to be a dogfight....
White House aides are fretting over a proposal by Attorney General Janet Reno and drug czar Barry McCaffrey to relax federal sentences for selling small amounts of crack cocaine and increase them for selling powder cocaine. The plan endorses complaints that federal law treats crack, used chiefly by minorities, 100 times more harshly than powder - amounting to a “symbol of racial injustice.” Aides worry that Clinton will be called soft on drugs if he backs the plan....
Hormones Can Affect Tears Hormone changes can also affect the quality of the tears. The same hormones that cause an increase in acne while pregnant can also cause the meibomian glands or lipid/oil glands to change during pregnancy. The meibomian glands line the upper and lower eyelid margins. One job of the meibomian glands is to secrete oil in the tears to prevent tear film evaporation. You may have a lot of tears, but they evaporate much faster than normal....

White’s white Range Rover ended up in center field of Houston’s Minute Maid Park, which is not an ideal location for the automobile. MORE: MLB trade rumors: Five teams that will be buyers The main reason it’s not a good spot is because baseballs are liable to land in the outfield. It’s what baseballs do. And that’s exactly what happened during the Astros batting practice before Saturday’s game against the Athletics....
The Blue Devils have become accustomed to working around their high turnover rate to field competitive teams every year, as they always recruit elite blue chip talent. Nevertheless, every college team has problems to solve before it can contend for a national championship, and Duke has plenty of its own. Here are three questions the Blue Devils need to answer in 2019-20: Where do they get their shooting? It’s no secret Duke was horrendous from beyond the arc last season....
It appeared in the first half that Kansas would run away with the game, shooting 45.5 percent from the field compared to Duke’s 31.3. Yet the Jayhawks only led 33-29, leaving the door open for Jon Scheyer’s Duke team to climb back into it. That’s almost what happened in the second half, with Duke relying on talented freshman Kyle Filipowski to lead a resurgence after halftime. At one point, the Blue Devils led 59-54 with just over 4 minutes left, setting up for a potentially classic finish....
The interim boss has overseen two wins and a loss so far during his time in temporary control and has called for those in charge at the club to make a decision on his future either way. “I said at the start when I came in that I don’t think about my status or my role,” he said in the build-up to Friday’s fixture. “That hasn’t changed and my outlook hasn’t changed at all....
The bizarre scene in which a man walked onto the court at Pittsburgh’s UPMC Cooper Fieldhouse during a game between Loyola Chicago and Duquesne on Wednesday has been exposed as a likely prank. The incident occurred early in the second half between the Ramblers and Dukes, with the unnamed individual walking onto the court and within a foot of Loyola forward Philip Alston in the corner. Play wasn’t stopped until after the Ramblers’ possession, which ended in a turnover....

“I’m delighted we didn’t lose 100 percent of our jobs despite the extremely long time we were locked down,” Harry Roque said during a press conference, according to Phil Star Global. “I’m still surprised at our resilience, and only 45 percent lost their jobs.
