LONGMONT, Colo. â A Longmont locksmith has spent three decades building his reputation. Now, he is watching it be destroyed by a website using his company s name and then reportedly overcharging customers.
According to Alan Embree, the key to a successful locksmith business is not just the tools, it s the trust. I ve lived in this neighborhood for almost 70 years, you think I m going to get away with going around sticking it to everybody I see and ripping people off? Embree asked. How long do you think that s going to go?

Cubs who drove in all of team s 5 or more runs By JohnW53 on May 31, 2021, 6:32am CDT +
On Sept. 16, he did it again.
No Cub has done it since.
Sosa drove in
6 runs as the Cubs won those games, and they were the only runs the Cubs scored.
No Cub ever has had 7 or more RBI in a game in which the Cubs scored exactly that number of runs.
Besides Sosa, only
6 of the Cubs runs. But they lost that game, 16-6, on April 29, 1960.
....
5 runs, all driven in by a single player.
The first of those players was
Bill Nicholson, at Cincinnati on April 26, 1942.

Moreover, the most-effective weapon in his arsenal, a 2,746-RPM slider, was topped only by Sergio Romo’s 2,913 RPMs among hurlers who threw the pitch at least 200 times.
Richards’s least-effective offering in 2020 was a two-seamer that’s hard to put a positive spin on. The erstwhile San Diego Padre threw 66 of them, and the ones that were put into play tended to get punished.
