Going Deep

Okay, the Triton 36000 sub looks way cool, and the technology behind its glass dome that gets stronger as you apply more pressure -- supposedly allowing it to explore the deepest underwater trenches in the world -- is really cool.

Sports Sunday

Sunday at Satellite Sports, I expected a crowd for the big showdown between Manchester United and Chelsea which decided the English Premier League winner ... that's what everyone sitting at the bar is watching.  Another big crowd was expected an hour later for the Ajax (Amsterdam's home team) vs. Twente game to decide the Dutch league title ... I wasn't expecting a big crowd of Israelis and Greeks for the Euroleague basketball game between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Panathakios .... those are some of the Israelis on the stairs watching their game.

So, just once ... this:
