Our honest Urban Arrow FamilyNext Pro review after a summer of daily riding in Toronto: what we love, what to know, and if a family cargo bike is worth it.

Bourbon and Whiskey distilling is big in Kentucky and always has been. But it saw a huge surge in the early 2000s, so much so that customer demand outstripped how much Kentucky distilleries could even produce. There were several reasons for this, but personally I feel like everyone was getting

Attached: 3 images For portraits, we have Rembrandt, where thick contrast in the mid-tones emphasizes bone structure and lighting. Abundant color in the low end converges to white as exposure increases, for perfect uniformity in skin-tones to emphasize contours of the face.

Attached: 4 images We developed Valencia for landscapes and cityscapes, but it also has interesting effects on portraiture and skin tones. It features thick contrast, deep saturation, and solid color separation.

Attached: 4 images Nova is exceptionally colorful, with tight contrast and smooth peachy highlights. Nova best suits landscapes and cityscapes rather than portraiture.

### Predicting the championship from the final four field I am revisiting last year’s Monte Carlo posts on predicting the outcomes of lacrosse games (here and here). Heading into Memorial Day weekend 2026, the UNC Women’s Lacrosse team has to be feeling confident. Defending champions and favored to win with 5 in 10 chances to take this year’s championship. On the Men’s side, Notre Dame has 4 in 10 chances to win the championship with Princeton having 2.8 chances in 10. Read on to learn more. Ratings are sourced from LaxPower2 and are based on a margin-of-victory calculation. The difference between two ratings is the number of goals by which the higher rated team is expected to win. Monte Carlo models are used to generate the odds of each of the four teams advancing and winning the championship. If 1,000 tournaments were played, UNC would win 502 championships, Northwestern 270, Maryland 124, and JHU 104 championships. **Women’s D1** Team | Record | Rating | AGD | GF | GA | Odds ---|---|---|---|---|---|--- UNC | 18-1 | 99.9000 | 10.31 | 341 | 145 | 50.2% Northwestern | 17-3 | 98.2876 | 5.90 | 295 | 177 | 27.0% Maryland | 18-3 | 97.2975 | 3.14 | 272 | 206 | 12.4% JHU | 17-4 | 96.8323 | 4.90 | 319 | 216 | 10.4% In the semifinal against Maryland, UNC is expected to win **724 games out of 1,000** and if Northwestern were to advance to the final, UNC would be expected to win the championship game over Northwestern **659 times out of 1,000**. **Women’s D3** Because we have friends that have a daughter playing for a D3 program, I ran the numbers for that bracket as well. Team | Record | Rating | AGD | GF | GA | Odds ---|---|---|---|---|---|--- Middlebury | 21-0 | 99.9000 | 9.47 | 303 | 104 | 38.0% Wesleyan | 18-3 | 98.2876 | 5.66 | 245 | 126 | 25.7% Tufts | 17-3 | 97.2975 | 7.75 | 313 | 158 | 19.6% Salisbury | 20-0 | 96.8323 | 7.60 | 295 | 143 | 16.8% **Middlebury** is expected to win the championship **380 times out of 1,000** tournaments. In the semifinal against Tufts, Middlebury is expected to win 606 times out of 1,000 games; Middlebury would be expected to win the championship over Wesleyan **612 times out of 1,000 finals**. Wesleyan has a loss and a win with Tufts and two losses to Middlebury on their record. Tufts has previously lost to Middlebury and Wesleyan but also has a win over Wesleyan. Salisbury has the worst odds, winning just **168 championships out of 1,000** simulated tournaments. Salisbury is expected to get past Wesleyan just 243 times out of 1,000 and could defeat Middlebury in a championship game 360 times. **Men’s D1** Team | Record | Rating | AGD | GF | GA | Odds ---|---|---|---|---|---|--- Notre Dame | 12-2 | 99.9000 | 4.71 | 186 | 120 | 40.2% Princeton | 15-2 | 99.2868 | 4.94 | 252 | 168 | 27.5% Duke | 11-4 | 98.8380 | 6.00 | 221 | 131 | 18.9% Syracuse | 13-5 | 98.3347 | 2.44 | 235 | 191 | 13.4% Princeton faces Duke in the first semifinal and Notre Dame faces Syracuse in the second. According to the model, **Notre Dame should win 402 of 1,000 championship** weekends. Syracuse has the longest odds, winning just 134 of 1,000 championship weekends. Head-to-head, Notre Dame should defeat Syracuse 662 of 1,000 semifinals. In a championship against Princeton, Notre Dame is expected to be victorious 665 of 1,000 times.
