"Are you sure?" people would respond, after they asked what she wanted to do. Even at an early age, she knew what they really meant: "You know you can't do that, right?" They would, and still do, tell her how hard she would have to work, as if a girl who played baseball with the boys from the moment she started Little League didn't know that already. She knew they thought she probably couldn't do it. In fairness, they had never seen anyone try. Whitmore was never afraid that that skepticism would make her question whether she belonged. As the first woman to start a game in the Atlantic League, an independent circuit, she had never exactly blended in. But she has stood in the same outfield as former major leaguers, tracking and … [Read more...] about Kelsie Whitmore is the first woman to play in the Atlantic League, and she knows what is possible and what isn’t

2019 Chevy Camaro Spied Showing Off Its Interior
Listen to this article The Chevy Camaro will undergo a minor makeover for 2019. The same platform that underpins the current model will remain, but some changes to the overall styling, both inside and out, and rumors of a new gearbox have all been reported. New spy photos show off the inside of the updated coupe for the first time, and give us a better idea of what to expect. In these images we see that the same six-speed manual gearbox found on the current model remains. Rumors have suggested that the Camaro would adopt the same seven-speed transmission from the Corvette, but it appears the Camaro will keep the same six-speed for now – at least in this trim. A 10-speed automatic, though, is expected thanks to recent CARB filings. On the outside, the Camaro will see a more modern front fascia similar to the update we saw recently on the 2018 Ford Mustang . A larger grille and sleeker headlights can vaguely be seen underneath all that camouflage. The rear will also … [Read more...] about 2019 Chevy Camaro Spied Showing Off Its Interior
Musk Says $44 Billion Twitter Deal On Hold Over Fake Account Data
Elon Musk tweeted on Friday that his $44-billion cash deal for Twitter Inc was "temporarily on hold" while he waits for the social media company to provide data on the proportion of its fake accounts. Twitter shares initially fell more than 20% in premarket trading, but after Musk, the chief executive of electric car market Tesla Inc, sent a second tweet saying he remained committed to the deal, they regained some ground. The shares were down 9.6% to $40.71 in trading on Friday, a steep discount to the $54.20 per share acquisition price. Musk, the world's richest person, decided to waive due diligence when he agreed to buy Twitter on April 25, in an effort to get the San Francisco-based company to accept his "best and final offer." This could make it harder for him to argue that Twitter somehow misled him. Since Musk inked his deal to acquire Twitter, technology stocks have plunged amid investor concerns over inflation and a potential economic slowdown. The spread between the … [Read more...] about Musk Says $44 Billion Twitter Deal On Hold Over Fake Account Data
