Satchel gave nicknames to all of his pitches, like the bee-ball, the barber, the two-hump blooper, the jump-ball, the trouble-ball, the long-ball, the bat dodger and his fastball, which he called Long Tom. His most unusual throw was called the hesitation pitch, because he stopped his arm for a second right before he released the ball to throw the batterâs timing off.
Jenga is played with 54 wooden blocks. Each block is three times longer than its width, and one fifth as thick as its length 1.5 cm Ã 2.5 cm Ã 7.5 cm (0.59 in Ã 0.98 in Ã 2.95 in).
In Washington, DC, 10 blocks = 1 mile. Well you'd have to rephrase this to ask how many blocks in a square mile. Now - since you are talking about city blocks, many cities are set out in one mile grids, and there is a new block every mile. So one square mile, one city block. Like in the movie 8 mile - it is a road. There is also 7 mile, 9 mile, 10 mile, so on and so forth until up to like 32 or something.
