I play flight simulator so much and have come to a conundrum :
When taking off the Boeing 747 with the least weight (few needed pounds and everything else empty), after 'rotating', should I pitch it up to 35 degrees angle to maintain the speed (because it tends to accelerate dramatically) during...
A pitch invader was somehow able to casually jog onto the pitch after visiting Steaua Bucharest took a 2-0 lead on Petrolul Ploiesti just before halftime and punched unsuspecting defender George Galamaz in the head. He then took on a group of Galamaz's teammates and got the kicking he deserved...
I have an old richmond gas boiler. I noticed that the large vent is level. I have no experience in heating, but shouldnt the vent be pitched somewhat to allow the exhaust to leave the house. I would think if its level it is not really venting out properly. Any suggestions?
The Boston Red Sox won't have to worry about John Lackey being a toxic presence in their clubhouse next year.
During his introductory press conference, new Red Sox GM Ben Cherington announced that Lackey will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the 2012 season.

My 12 year old daughter has a music assignment for school. I am not really into music and am having some difficulty helping her answer the questions for her chosen song so thought I would enlist the help of all the smart people on yahoo answers.
Her chosen song is 'Fireflies' by Owl City and...
The combination of the intense heat at the Santiago Bernabeu and coming off a nice break (that included riding jetskis with Dani Alves) following Copa America had an unsettling effect on Lionel Messi's belly. Late in the first half of Sunday's Supercopa first leg against Real Madrid, Messi...

On Wednesday night, Kevin Harvick took to the mound for his beloved New York Yankees ... for one pitch, at least. Harvick threw out the first pitch at the Yankees-Angels game, and as you can see there at right, his form is ... well, it's not terrible.
Harvick's handler "Mother Function"...
...highway speeds? The car, not immediately, but I'd say maybe 20 minutes into a highway ride begins to emit a high pitch whine on pressing the accelerator. The pitch of the whine increases with speed. It does not whine the the gas is not applied.
Brand new tires if that makes a difference.

Remember the ceremonial first pitch that pop diva Mariah Carey reluctantly threw at a Japanese game back in 2008? It landed hilariously short of the target and we all laughed and laughed. (Nice outfit, though.)
Well, young Washington Wizards star John Wall must have been studying the Mariah...
Now that his testimonial match has been played and he's completely retired, Gary Neville is settling into a life of smiles and schmoozing as an ambassador for Manchester United. Odd as it may seem, his most recent task was to travel to Chicago and throw out the first pitch at Thursday night's...

The Braves and Mets are headed to the sandlot for an 8 pm EST start, and we'll help you enjoy the game with two hours of fantasy advice, historical perspective and silly polling. Come for the R.A. Dickey knuckleball and the Tim Hudson sinker; stay for the Brad Evans curveball and the Andy...
Davey Becks skipped an L.A. Galaxy league match to play in best friend Gary Neville's testimonial against Juventus at Old Trafford on Tuesday. The mere fact that he was back at his former home and wearing a Manchester United shirt for the first time since 2003 was, of course, more than enough to...
</p> Neil Lennon was attacked by a pitch invader during Celtic's 3-0 win at Hearts. The man hopped out of the stands near Celtic's bench and ran right for Lennon, barreling into him as he tried to connect with a punch to the head before Celtic staffers and stewards pinned him to the ground...
The Chicago Cubs said they wanted VCU coach Shaka Smart to sing "Take Me Out to The Ballgame" during one of their games this season, but now they've added throwing out the first pitch, too.
On May 8, when the Cubbies take on the Reds, Smart will sing the famed seventh inning stretch song and...

Those of us who worried that Brian Wilson was spending too much time dressing up like a sea captain and hanging out with Charlie Sheen this offseason probably shouldn't have.
At some point during his wild and wacky afterglow of the World Series, the San Francisco Giants wild closer also found...
