    Oh for the love of god, move this to the full-sized Tnuvot already! Or even New Jersey. (naturally, Metula is out of the question)

    In Memoriam

    If you've studied psychology/judgment and decision making/business/econ, you've probably come across the work of 2002 Nobel Prize Laureate Daniel Kahneman: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/27/business/daniel-kahneman-dead.html In an anecdote told in his Nobel Prize bio, he wrote about realizing...

    Royalty Thread #16: the best of times, the worst of times

    Why would I start a thread to discuss things I don't want to discuss? :confused: Look, I understand that many people have dealt and are dealing with serious medical conditions, and that there's value in talking about it and getting support and information from others. But... that's not the...

    Royalty Thread #16: the best of times, the worst of times

    I don't think there's anything wrong with it, either, but it's not something I particularly want to engage in myself, and it's not the topic of this thread. So, as I wrote: why not have a dedicated thread for that?

    Royalty Thread #16: the best of times, the worst of times

    I think it may be a good idea to have a separate thread for medical discussions, perhaps in a less public section of this forum.

    Royalty Thread #16: the best of times, the worst of times

    Let's start with something positive and hope for more to come: https://www.tatler.com/article/princess-eugenie-never-before-seen-picture And somewhat belatedly: https://people.com/king-queen-bhutan-announce-baby-daughter-royal-name-8414249

    Royalty thread #15: A New Era

    Did she or anyone speaking on her behalf say that it was stage 1? For some types of cancer, they do not do adjuvant chemo unless it's more advanced. Hopefully it was early and she's responding well to treatment šŸ™ I'm so sorry your mom had to go through what she did. Even years later, I'm sure...

    Royalty thread #15: A New Era

    None of us know 1. what sort of surgery Kate had 2. what was sent to pathology and how concerned they were about it at the time 3. what kinds of tests were done and the timeframe involved 4. when she was informed - it may well be that grading/staging took longer than what you experienced 5. how...

    Worlds 2024 Men FS: ā€˜Putting the Eh? in Standing Ovationā€™

    Having watched everything after reading this thread: as a technical achievement, it may be years before anyone rivals what Ilia did. But as a program... meh. Yuma is a beautiful skater but the sleeves on that costume ruin his lines, I am displeased! Adam was wonderful, Britschgi is a delight and...

    Yes, that was cringe in its purest form.

    Worlds 2024 Free Dance: ā€˜The Moors of Montrealā€™

    I often wonder if skaters and coaches know what actually happens in The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.

    Royalty thread #15: A New Era

    Kate is, of course, a royal. But getting diagnosed with cancer, at her age, with three young kids and while recovering from major surgery - that would have been a huge shock and a terrifying experience. Of course she'd want to take her time before sharing anything publicly. Sending good...
