I would expect the 5 minutes to be the interlined frequency, not the individual line frequency. So just extending the end of the PM peak from 7 pm to 10:30 pm (still good!)

are you sure about this math? I have Italy beating the US with a 29 cm LSD in their last match, as they have the best LSD in case of a tie in DSC. I could very well have made a typo entering the data though

I thought so but wasn't certain. But that's why IBX is using 14' centers instead of something narrower (plus it's an old ROW so no need to squeeze)

12.5' with a pole between the tracks?

2.3.3.3 Vehicle Clearance to Wayside Obstructions and Other Tracks

It is not unusual to have clearance restrictions on an LRT line that cannot be either simply or economically altered. In such cases, the track designer should coordinate with the vehicle and structural designers to ensure that the vehicle dynamic envelope considers these limitations so that adequate clearances result. Vehicle dynamics are governed by the car's suspension systems) and, therefore, indirectly by numerous factors of track and vehicle interaction. For multiple-track situations, multiple clearance envelopes must be considered. Overlapping of the vehicle dynamic envelopes from adjacent tracks obviously must be avoided. The resulting requirements will dictate minimum track centers and running clearances for tangent and curved track, including construction and maintenance tolerances as input to the track alignment calculations.

In general, the absolute minimum tangent track centers for vehicles of normal width (e.g., 2650 mm / 8.7 feet) for rigid trackforms (direct fixation or embedded) are 13 feet 6 inches [about 4.15
m] with a catenary pole between the tracks. If the poles are outboard of the tracks, 11 feet [about 3.35 m] is the typical minimum spacing. Tangent track center spacing for ballasted track is typically 6 inches [15 cm] greater than those for rigid trackform track due to greater allowances for construction tolerances and shifting of the tracks over time. Track curvature and superelevation increase these dimensions. These issues are discussed further in Chapter 3, Article 3.8.

TCRP 155 calls for 14’ when placing catenary poles between ballasted tracks, which the typical section is calling for

I Have A Great Idea For Retraining ICE Agents | Defector The several thousand federal agents currently running rampant in the Twin Cities have so far achieved little in the way of legitimate law enforcement objectives, but they have been rather more success...

I have a piece today in Defector making the case for "more training" for ICE agents. A *lot* more training. defector.com/i-have-a-gre...

Forty-Eight Hours in Israeli Captivity A journalist captured on a flotilla mission recounts treatment at the hands of the Israeli navy, border police, and prison guards.

"In Hebrew they commented on our appearances, called us Hamas, gestapo, and whores, and joked about our obvious discomfort as people shifted and vocalized in pain. A speaker blasted Israeli pop music."

Read Emily Wilder's dispatch from Israeli custody:

Top speed is the same, but they don’t have to slow as much in curves because the tilting counteracts some amount of cant deficiency

A Perfect Spy is my favorite of his, though it can be a bit confusing at first, jumping around in time and place. The Night Manager is also great, and it has an excellent miniseries adaptation on Prime video
