Competitors come together to speak out against man-made jumps that they say cause crashes. ANDREAS SOLARO—AFP/Getty Images While cars only take to the air in NASCAR and Formula 1 after something has already gone incredibly wrong, in the World Rally Championship it is a routine occurrence and part of the sport"s appeal. However, drivers are speaking out against the artificial jumps that have been added to some recent rally stages as being unnecessary and dangerous, reports Motorsport.com . "We all agreed as drivers, it"s not clever to build these artificial, short, kicking jumps in the middle of a long straight," WRC champion Sebastien Ogier told Motorsport.com . "I have nothing against jumps, I love it and they can make as many jumps as they want, but make them progressive and not the ramp so sharp and short. We come in sixth gear and it"s stupid." At last weekend"s Rally Italia Sardegna, Toyota driver Ott Tanak hit one of these jumps on the Mon...

In April, Mexican federal police arrested Keith Raniere , taking him from the $10,000-per-week villa where he was staying and extraditing him to New York. According to the NY Daily News , Raniere, leader of self-help group NXIVM (pronounced “nexium”), is now being held without bail while he awaits trial on sex-trafficking charges. Through NXIVM, he preached “empowerment,” but critics say the group was a cult , and engaged in extreme behavior, including branding some women with an iron. This was not the first controversial program Raniere was involved in. In 1992, Raniere ran a multilevel marketing program called “Consumer Buyline,” which was described as an “illegal pyramid,” by the Arkansas Attorney General’s office. More recently, he has collected more than two dozen patents from the U.S. Patent Office, and has more applications pending—including this one , which is for a method of determining “whether a Luciferian ca...

During seven series of the show (so far), several musicians and bands have appeared on screen. Kristian believes having modern celebrities breaks the magic of the show for viewers. "I"m not a fan of the cameos in Game Of Thrones," Kristian told Huffington Post. "I don"t like them. I think it"s stupid. I don"t mind going on the record on that. I just think it takes you right out of the world." Sigur Ros, Coldplay drummer Will Champion, Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol and Icelandic band Of Monsters & Men are among big names who have appeared in the show. But as the most famous person to appear on the show, it was Ed Sheeran that Kristian singled out as the most unrealistic cameo during his time on the show.

Q: I wonder why so few streets have sidewalks on both sides of the street? Other than the historic downtown, most streets in Manhattan have either no sidewalk or a sidewalk on only one side of the street. Why is that? A: It’s funny you should ask that. The topic recently came up at a Manhattan City Commission meeting. On June 19, Chad Bunger, community development assistant director, discussed sidewalks during a general discussion about updating zoning and subdivision regulations. “If you drive around Manhattan and look closely, Manhattan kind of looks like the rings of a tree,” he said. “You can date subdivisions by some of its development patterns, and sidewalks are one of them.” During its initial development, Manhattan required sidewalks on both sides of the streets, which would explain the look of downtown and other older areas in town. Bunger said the city didn’t require any sidewalks from the 1950s through the late 1970s. The city has and...
