  1. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    I don't know what the details are. That's why we have courts of law try to find facts. There's a trial ongoing now to determine that. If he's guilty then he deserves all of the shame and reprobation you want to heap onto him. But it's shameful to assume that he's guilty if he's not, isn't it...
  2. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Okay I figured it out, and yes both @Truth and @Joseph K are misrepresenting what has happened here. There are two separate charges. One is for 2903.13 Assault, which is plead guilty for. This is for simple assault and battery. So no sexual touching or juveniles involved in this one. What...
  3. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Okay so both of you guys started accounts in June 2024, and have strong opinions about this case, providing your own "interpretations" of a controversial court case. And none of this is motivated by some sort of agenda against Dubina? The docket clearly shows that the complaint is for 3rd...
  4. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    The docket doesn't show whether someone was clearly guilty or not. And if you are guilty of sex charges on minors, you don't only get a few months of actual jail time and probation. You get many years in prison. Please don't add in your own commentary and suppositions if you have no idea...
  5. DHS PG7 or 729 Yellow ALC?

    Not trying to be confrontational, but you can hardly blame me for assuming you had bought the DHS 4002 since your profile shows this:
  6. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    They usually attach lighter charges to the more serious charges. I can't access the PDF filing, but "assault" in the legal context doesn't even have to involve any contact with a person. It just requires causing a reasonable fear of harm. If he got into some sort of dustup with a minor student...
  7. WTT Contender Tunis 2024 6/25-6/30

    Impressive performance by the Thai women. Paranang's rallying ability was on par with Miwa and there were a lot of beautiful blocks and redirects of Miwa's power shots. Interestingly, Suthasani's little sister Jinnipa apparently has a 3-0 win over Batra last year too. I guess the Thai team must...
  8. What rubbers have the strongest reaction to booster?

    Definitely not 729 Bloom Power. Put a layer on and it didn't even curl a little bit. Guess I should wait to see how it plays. Mercury 2 had an extremely strong reaction to baby oil. A couple layers and the thing went from mild to wild.
  9. DHS PG7 or 729 Yellow ALC?

    The Fextra and good rubbers for it were already recommended to him in his first thread when he asked about getting a premade DHS which turned out to be a bust. I think he really wants something DHS. You forgot to mention that the Fextra has a better handle for men's hands, as the PG7 is...
  10. Modern "classic" rubbers

    Xiom Vega Intro and Nittaku Factive are two that are often mentioned as the middle ground in between classic rubbers and modern tensors.
  11. WTT Contender Tunis 2024 6/25-6/30

    Man he looked so good in that top 16 tournament until he lost to Darko in the finals. Remember being amazed by his gameplay and was thinking the Chinese league experience got him to the next level. Feels like he's been sputtering ever since. It's a shame because his style is the most fun to...
  12. Aditya Godhwani vs. Fang Yingchi

    Thanks! Good to finally get the name of the dude that's always in the Fang Bo instructional videos. He's a really good teacher though probably more geared towards higher level play which I'm not close to yet.
  13. Need help about Japan

    人 means person. Could be jin or nin (onyomi) or hito (kunyomi). 外 just means outside of. It's short for 外国人 (gaikokujin). Literally, person from outside country. There's no derogatory connotation inherently although I've heard people say it was rude maybe 15 years ago. Then again, almost...
  14. Need help about Japan

    It depends on how you live. If you want to go there, work at a Japanese company, and then attempt to be accepted by Japanese people then you will have a hard time. I lived there for a few weeks to a few months at a time over the years and find that I enjoy "living there" because my income and...
  15. Good brands/models of balls to buy on AliExpress

    The Hueison, Sanwei, and Double Fish 3 star training balls all feel the same to me (they are all very popular in Vietnam for multiball) I wouldn't be surprised if the balls were exactly the same except for branding. I think they are fine to play with too but people here still want to use like...
  16. World's Longest Table Tennis Rally 2024 | Attempt

    Ah I've heard of those being used for things like this. That's definitely going to add to the difficulty. Hard to focus when nature calls!
  17. World's Longest Table Tennis Rally 2024 | Attempt

    Did you guys stop drinking water in preparation? What about bathroom breaks?
  18. Sanwei 75 inner carbon is a great blade

    It's a great blade and probably the most comfortable to play with at the moment for me. However, I just discovered within the past few minutes that you must seal the blade or you will get some splintering. I just removed a rubber from it for the first time and it left behind a good amount of...
  19. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Some more observations about Loki Rxton 3 Blue vs Pink (the new batch) Rxton 3 Pink weighs 64g uncut. Rxton 3 Blue weighs 66g uncut. Pink on my durometer was 50d. Blue on the durometer was 49-50d. Blue on my durometer was around 51d. Pink has a heavy gasoline smell. Blue smells just like...
  20. Have you "successfully" learned Ma Long's Forehand technique?

    The most obvious answer is that people have different bodies and therefore the optimal way to generate force on an object will differ from one person to the next. Ma Long's FH form is optimal for him and designed for his specific body type, from his specific proportions, bone structure, muscle...
