Why the triple axel is such a big deal

Triple axels can turn skaters into legends. This is why.\n\nFollow Vox's full 2018 Winter Olympics coverage here: http://bit.ly/2nVUSz2\n\nSubscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO\n\nIn this episode of Vox Almanac, Phil Edwards explores the triple axel and why it's such a big deal. The figure skating jump is legendary among ice skaters, from Tonya Harding's 1991 triple axel to modern icon Mirai Nagasu's attempts in competition. It turns out that the physics of the triple axel makes it a uniquely difficult jump — and one worth learning about.\n\nAs a forward-edge jump, the mechanics of a triple axel requires technical acumen from skaters while they still try to maintain an artistically interesting performance. Pioneers like Midori Ito and Tonya Harding had to jump, ramp up rotation speed, and then land all while trying to look good. This effort set them apart from competitors like Nancy Kerrigan, but it wasn't easy to land a triple axel in competition.\n\nAnd that difficulty might be why the triple axel endures as the pinnacle of figure skating performance — and why it's sure to light up the 2018 Winter Olympics as well.\n\nVox.com is a news website that helps you cut through the noise and understand what's really driving the events in the headlines.

Full video: Port Authority commissioner confronts police during N.J. traffic stop

Caren Z. Turner, a Democratic lobbyist from Tenafly, has resigned as a commissioner from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, after an investigation was opened into what agency officials would only describe as profoundly disturbing conduct. Turner's resignation allegedly involved her intervention in a recent traffic stop in connection with her daughter. Turner apparently flashed her Port Authority badge in an effort to intercede with police officers on the scene.\n\nFind the story on http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2018/04/watch_video_shows_pa_commissioner_telling_cops_to.html\n\nTurner's statement: http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2018/04/port_authority_commissioner_responds_to_outcry_ove.html\n\nBookmark the NJ.com channel:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/njdotcom\n\nSubscribe to NJ.com on YouTube:\nhttp://bit.ly/2gt8bnX\n\nWatch our Editors’ Picks:\nhttp://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgHv1IduxRwhKXVP8BdFM7co9Dyzq5Nu2\n\nFind us on Facebook:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/NJ.com/\n\nFollow us on Twitter:\nhttps://twitter.com/njdotcom\n\nFollow our Instagram:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/njdotcom/

At least ten people were injured in a ski-lift crush in Georgia’s mountain resort of Gudauri.\n\nThe citizens of Georgia, Ukraine, Russia and Sweden were reportedly taken to a hospital with minor injuries.\n\nA ski lift malfunction was reported at Sadzele mountain ski trail in Gudauri in the morning on 16 March. There was an emergency stop after which the ski lift chairs started sliding back. The riders had to jump off the ski lift to survive.\nAccording to the Georgian Healthcare Minister, David Sergeenko, 8 people turned to the Gudauri-based medical emergency clinic.\n\n“Luckily no one was killed or seriously injured. There are two patients, the nationals of Ukraine and Sweden, who still need to be paid particular attention,” said David Sergeenko. According to the Georgian Healthcare Minister, the Ukrainian citizen has an open fracture of a forearm, while another injured person, a Swedish national, is a pregnant woman. Both of them have been transported from Gudauri to Tbilisi by helicopter.\n\nThe Georgian Ministry of Interior has instituted criminal proceedings under Article 275 of the Criminal Code of Georgia – “violation of safety regulations or procedures for the operation of the railway, water, air or cableway transport traffic”.
