Tablet Exclusive: The Final Interview With Shimon Peres

The political forces on the right in the USA want to change this: "“Why is America great?” I asked him. “Because they were givers. Why is Europe in trouble? Because they are takers. America is giving; people think it’s because they are generous. I think it’s because they are wise. If you give, you create friends. The most beneficial investment is making friends." Words from a great man.

Feds: We can read all your email, and you'll never know

"Fear of hackers reading private emails in cloud-based systems like Microsoft Outlook, Gmail or Yahoo has recently sent regular people and public officials scrambling to delete entire accounts full of messages dating back years. " How dumb. Every email ever sent exists at your email provider (where you can delete it but it often hangs around for 30 days ), on your provider's backup and archives (where you can't touch it), on the other parties' providers, provider's backups, local backups and archives (from which you can't delete it). To completely remove an email from the world is close to an impossible task. The only thing that preserves privacy is that nobody (quite often not even the intended recipient) actually wants to read the mail :-)

“When asked how he views Mexicans Gutierrez admitted he sees them as “stubborn, arrogant, false pride, intolerant, selfish.”” This poor guy is getting shat on because he is honest about his own group identity. Unfortunately his assessment is accurate about every group that people identify with. Consider your own and assess thoughtfully and honestly. For those of my ilk, consider the Viduy. I don’t agree with his politics, but this is an unfair attack on his honest assessment of his own group every group I have ever heard people identified with - including Patriots, Americans, Cubs Fans, Patriots Fans, Chicagoans, BMW drivers, Porsche drivers, Prius drivers, Leica owners, Bread Bakers, you get the picture…

Sam Bee Mocks Lauer, Hits Media For Inability To 'Call A Liar A Liar'

"Maintaining the image of fairness requires them to portray Hillary and Trump as equally flawed candidates, even though they know that's incorrect," she noted. "On the one hand you have the most breathtakingly, unqualified, ignoramus to of heave his balls within striking distance of office. A race-baiting bully who, according to two carefully researched biographies, is a tax cheating, investor swindling, dictator loving, pathologically lying, attorneys general bribing, philandering, mobbed up, narcissistic serial con artist who hasn't got the attention span to read a fortune cookie much less a -- intelligence briefing." Using the perfect visual for this part, she concluded, "But on the other hand, Hillary Clinton used a private e-mail server. See? Perfectly even. Next up on the place for politics the neck and neck ..." As always comedians provide more insight than journalists and pseudo journalists and commentators.

How non-English speakers are taught this crazy English grammar rule you know but have never heard of

I posted about this yesterday - but I did not know it was taught to non-English speakers. The hard wiring brains is weird (wierd?) "Learning rules doesn’t always work, however. Forsyth also takes issue with the rules we think we know, but which don’t actually hold true. In a lecture about grammar, he dismantles the "...commonly held English spelling mantra “I before E except after C.” It’s used to help people remember how to spell words like “piece,” but, Forsyth says, there are only 44 words that follow the rule, and 923 that don’t. His prime examples? “Their,” “being,” and “eight.”""

But, today, it is only Clinton’s private server system that has sparked federal and congressional investigations, and whose core trustworthiness is now casually and hourly questioned from coast to coast—by some of the very men whose email hygiene habits are no better and who, furthermore, have demonstrated time and again that they believe rules about transparency were invented to be broken.”

Chicago Tribune

"We should be distraught at the recent uptick in violent crime. The 473 homicides last year and similar number already this year, prominently covered daily, have taken a terrible toll, especially in some neighborhoods on the South and West sides. But my contemporaries seem to have forgotten that when we were growing up here, playing kick the can in the streets, there were 970 murders (1974) in the city, and when we were raising our kids here there were 943 (1992). From 1994 to the early 2000s, the number of murders was cut almost in half to under 500, where it has stood, almost without exception, for a dozen years"
