Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everyone's face but their own, which is the chief reason for the kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.--Swift
Jane Louise is moving back to Pittsburgh. She got into Duquesne's Pharma program, a very good program.
Nice meal at Zihno.
Painful Pens game. I'm very surprised. They just don't look as good as N.Y..
On the other hand, the Pirates had a great game.
The US State Department has updated its travel advisories for 35 countries with a new indicator to highlight the risk of kidnapping and hostage taking. Travel advisories the following countries have been updated to include the "K" indicator: Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Haiti, Iran, Iraq, Kenya, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Mali, Mexico, Niger, Nigeria, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Russian Federation, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine (in Russian-controlled eastern Ukraine), Venezuela, and Yemen.
Strange that they have any travelers to victimize at all. I can't imagine wanting to go to any of those places.
Veteran British comedian Ian Cognito died on stage Thursday evening during a stand-up performance.
Workers in the top 20% of earnings distributions have half of all retirement wealth in both 1992 and 2010, compared with the bottom group, which saw its share fall from 3% to 1% between those years, a recent analysis at The New School’s Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis (SCEPA) found. The share of workers in the bottom fifth of the earnings distribution with no retirement savings jumped from 45% to 51% in those 18 years.
One just can wonder what will happen when the coffee houses get hold of this.
According to data available from the National Science Foundation, women earned nearly 60% of US master’s degrees in “Science and Engineering” between 2000 and 2015, meaning that women earned more than 148 graduate master’s degrees for every 100 degrees awarded to men. Based on the NSF definition of “Science and Engineering” degrees, men are a vastly under-represented minority for graduate degrees at the master’s level at America’s universities.
How about some affirmative action for men.
This Barr thing is really getting interesting. Look at what Pelosi said yesterday:
"Let me just say how very, very dismaying and disappointing that the chief law enforcement officer of our country is going off the rails, yesterday and today," Pelosi said during a news conference at a House Democratic retreat in Virginia.
"He is the attorney general of the United States of America, not the attorney general of Donald Trump," she added.
Just as if spying on and trying to influence a campaign by a national were less important than by a foreigner.
There are almost no gender differences in wages among single (that is, never-married) workers: Whether they are men or women, single workers earn very similar wages. Married and single women also earn similar wages. This is surprising since married women may be more likely to have children than single women. Thus, this second point is not consistent with the view that the gender wage gap results from women having children earlier in life and losing ground in human capital accumulation relative to men. Finally, married men earn wages that dominate those of the other three categories.
Thomas Jefferson, drafter of the Declaration of Independence and the nation’s preeminent political theorist, was born on this day in 1743.
And an amazing event: On this day, so-called “Black Monday” in 1360, a hail storm killed an estimated 1,000 English soldiers in Chartres, France. The storm and the devastation it caused also played a part in the Hundred Years’ War between England and France.
No Moore Warming
According Greenpeace's Stephen Moore, "CO2 is the primary food for life, and along with water, H2O and CO2, plants make sugar, mainly glucose, which is a carbohydrate, which is the basis for all the energy for all of life, beginning with photosynthesis.....Carbon dioxide is actually the main fertilizer and building block for life.... So we come along after 4 billion years of this, and start burning some of the fossil fuels, and finally start putting some of the carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere where it came from in the first place."
And, "There has been no statistically significant warming for 18 years and six months on this Earth even though about 25% of all the carbon dioxide we have ever emitted has gone into the atmosphere during this period."

The Hundred Years’ War began in 1337; by 1359, King Edward III of England was actively attempting to conquer France.
