Jerry Meals, I Really Just Wanted to Go Home
He really wanted to go home, I think. It's a 6 Hours and 39 minutes game. He never expected it. I did. You did. We enjoyed the long game, but it's a completely annoying to him. Yeah, I understand. It's a Instinct and Human nature.
Scott Proctor already knew it's safe. He had ceremony just after hitting supter-strong ground ball
What can I say, I'm proud of Pirates. It's never been expected in last not a few years. I have no idea, but Pirates is getting stronger and stronger.
It's a fun baseball season!

DUI vs DWI and DUI Law In Pennsylvania
DUI stands for Driving Under the Influence and DWI stands for either Driving While Intoxicated or Driving While Impaired. Another term that is sometimes used is Operating While Impaired (OWI). All these terms relate to driving after consuming alcohol or drugs. The drugs don't have to be illegal for a DUI to be issued - they can be illegal narcotics, over the counter medication, or prescribed medication. Depending upon the state where you live, the severity of the offense may vary.
In some states, the drunk driving laws differentiate between a DUI and a DWI, where the DUI is a lesser charge. In these states, a DUI usually signifies a lesser degree of intoxication, which is determined by a person's blood alcohol level at the time of arrest. Sometimes, states will allow the charges of a DWI to be reduced to a DUI. In the case of a reduction from a DWI to a DUI, certain conditions typically must be met, such as the incident being a first offense, the defendant’s display of remorse for the action, and a blood alcohol level that was not drastically over the legal limit. For example, the state of New York differentiates between DWI and DUI by establishing a blood alcohol level of .08 as the legal limit for DWI. If a person has a blood alcohol level of .07, the charges may be reduced to a DUI, which carries a lesser punishment.
Some states (like Virginia and New Jersey) do not recognize any difference between a DUI and a DWI. As far as the laws of these states are concerned, any blood alcohol level over the specified limit is a crime that will be punished in the same manner.
In Minnesota, on the other hand, there is technically no such thing as a DUI because they only use the term DWI.
The distinction for the federal government is drawn based on severity. A DWI is issued when the blood alcohol content (BAC) is over the 0.08 limit, whereas a DUI is a less severe term, given when a persons BAC is under 0.08.
In Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania DUI Laws: Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) Limits and Implied Consent
- "Per Se" BAC Limit: 0.08 Percent
- Zero Tolerance (Underage) BAC Limit: 0.02 Percent
- Enhanced Penalty (Aggravated) BAC Limit: 0.16
- Implied Consent to Submit to BAC Test: Yes
Pennsylvania DUI Laws: Select Penalties
- Minimum License Suspension or Revocation (1st, 2nd, 3rd offense): none, 1 year, 1 year
- Mandatory Alcohol Education, Assessment and Treatment: Assessment & Treatment
- Vehicle Confiscation Possible: No
- Ignition Interlock Device Possible: Yes

Pyeongchang to Host Winter Olympics 2018
The choice of Pyeongchang follows two close South Korean defeats in attempts for the 2010 and 2014 games, to Canada's Vancouver and Russia's Sochi, respectively.
Early reports placed the South Korean bid as a slight favorite over Germany, with France as a distant third choice.
Pyeongchang's choice for 2018 means the Winter Games will be held in Asia for the first time since the 1998 games took place in Nagano, Japan.

Google Interview Questions - Check-sum, Cryptography, or Stupid
It's a kind of making you stupid. Some possible answers are here.
1. Check-sum
Since you are just "checking," you ask him to call you at a certain time. If he doesn't, he doesn't have your number. Too simple? A reader suggest: "In that case you need a check-sum. Have Bob add all the digits of your phone number together, write down the total, and pass that back to you."
2. Public key Cryptography
Here is my public key, please encrypt my phone number you have with it and send back to me.
key=num-reveres of num
e.g if my no is 9740852296
the key=2818271817 Eve can't read it as Eve doesn't have my number so she can't predict & she has to lot of computation which only possible she know my number or some its digits ..so she can't decode the my key.
(we can also extend the explanation so i write on the paper that bob i am sending you key to decode it reverse the key & then decode using logic you have so the same thing bob has to do in its side & same he write back to me..m not using this in this solution )
then bob decode it using computation he tries all the way +,-*,/, %,xor all possible way to decode if he has my correct phone number then suppose he try to subtract my key from my phone number he has so if has correct phone number then after subtracting the key from my number he will send 9740852296-2818271817=6922580476 & he also write that after decoding reverse it so i will get my original number e.g. 9740852296 so i can say bob has my correct phone number else it would have been some other value & after reversing it i wont get my exact no so i can say bob don't have my correct number..
