Hypertension notification is fantastic in theory, but I’m skeptical that this can be done without a new sensor. Seems impossible with heart rate data alone. But I guess if it only sometimes works, it still has the potential to save lives.

Where there's smoke, there tends to be a fired manager, and so it was no surprise that Nottingham Forest announced on Monday that it had parted ways with Nuno Espírito Santo. Following Forest's 3-0 drubbing at West Ham on Aug. 31, ahead of the first international break of the season, the club decided to sack the manager who led last season's stunning success. Of course, as avid readers of Defector might already know, the on-field results were secondary to Nuno's fate, and it was really his public feud with both owner Evangelos Marinakis and Global Head of Football Edu that sealed it.

There’s a dilemma near the end of Iron Duke. The titular character in sportswriter John R.

Tunis, perhaps inserting himself into the text just a bit, gives a summary:

Then the Crimson appeared with an editorial on the subject. It was a real Crimson editorial in which for the first hundred words the writer explained the duty which the Duke owed to the coach and the team, and in the next hundred explained that Harvard was a place where a man did as he chose, and then ended with a couple of hundred words completely befuddling the reader who might wonder just where the Crimson stood in the matter.

Welcome back to The Not-So-Great Defector Bake Off, where Kelsey and Chris attempt to complete the technical challenges from the newest season of The Great British Bake Off in their own home kitchens, with the same time parameters as the professional-grade bakers competing on the show.
