Anyone understand the chip shot challenge mini game?

Example: Donkey Kong aims far left but the ball lands right in front of the pin. Another computer aims far right and it lands on the same general area. It looks as though aiming doesn't do anything.

Title is pretty self-explanatory. Does anyone know of any places that have open gyms volleyball or basketball? Or inside/outside courts with scrimmages or just people playing around. I have gotten so stagnant with working from home I need something to get me moving again!

I played both sports in high school and would be willing to play at any level.

Thanks in advance!

Basically the title. Especially if the movie/show loses a chunk of it's budget just to get a big name actor to play some dog or bird or something. I can't imagine people see a particular animated movie just because their favorite actor is voicing someone in it.

I do admit it can be fun to try and guess which actor voices which character but I wouldn't say it adds anything to the movie or show.

I love the importance of characters' and the schools' names in the series.

The fact that Hinata and Tsukishima are both Middle blockers with Hinata meaning 'Face the Sun' and Tsukishima meaning 'Moon Island'. It really fits their personalities as well as their relationship on the team.

Karasuno's team being the crows. They are scrappy and all have the ability to overwhelm opponent's while together.

Shiratorizawa meaning 'white bird' (basically eagle) with Ushiwaka having the ability to soar over everyone and make a huge impact in matches just by himself.

But Nekoma's coach is straight up named Mr. Nekomata. so isn't that basically the equivalent of having a school called Cat High Schoo

I was thinking about different teams with great looking rosters in hindsight, but it just didn't work out. Maybe it was because players were past their prime or just being too inexperienced to make a big run in the season/playoffs.

My first thoughts are on the OKC Thunder with Westbrook, Harden, and Durant. They got pretty far but their inexperience was definitely a crutch in their performance. I've seen people talk about it on here a lot, but thinking of them being on the same team now would be crazy!

My other thought would be the Lakers a few years ago with Steve Nash and Kobe Bryant (and Dwight Howard!) both in decline and with injuries. Would have been awesome to see them on the same

I've been looking at SNDL for the past couple days and would like to throw in a good bit of money ($10,000) however I read about their offering this morning.

From my understanding this means they are pricing their stock at $1.00. is that correct?

If anyone that is financially/stock literate then I would appreciate an explanation on this news.

I have recently rewatched the movies. 2 things came to mind-

Why doesn't Gandalf tell Gimli that the dwarves in Moria are dead? It feels like a scummy move to just have him blindsided while in the mine.

Did Gandalf get resurrected in Fangorn Forest or did he just travel there himself? Seems odd that he would pop up there. Also, the fact that Treebeard knew he was there despite being asleep(?) Or in a tree coma or something. If they did meet before then Gandalf missed an opportunity in Making strategy with the Ents.

I read the books some time ago but don't remember straight answers to these questions.

Edit: Just thought of a new question. Why didn't the Fellowship take the Eagles st

I love Haikyuu and all the players of Karasuno. Recently, I started rewatching and totally forgot how much I disliked Tsukishima at the start.

But, the anime completely turned around my opinion on him. The backstory of him and his older brother. In addition to the short flashback of him meeting Yamaguchi. This leads into the Shiratorizawa match, where he has one of the best moments of the show.

Not only are the volleyball matches super intense (cheering for every point while watching lol). The character development is great.

So, I'd like to give some respect to the 'other' middle blocker of Karasuno - Kei Tsukishima!

Does anyone know when the new Harris Teeter on Wade Hampton and Stone Ave. Opens?

I thought I saw something saying it is opening this month. It looks pretty much all up and ready.Any information would be great!
