If it’s one of these things that is going to ultimately bring about some unintended consequences ... look, I'm nervous about the minimum wage because when we raise it to hurry up to get to an endpoint, it’s like that whack-a-mole game—something else pops up somewhere else. It’s like rent control. We have the wealthiest societies in human history - countries like Norway and New Zealand - that can't project power to their own borders. And we have basket-case states, like North Korea, which has an all but undetectable GDP. But it's a nuclear power. We rolled the dice with the future of this country, And I think it’s going to come up snake eyes. Pat Buchanan
A startling revelation by the U.K, There are 6,000-10,000 jihadists roaming about the country. “Activity continues around the clock to identify and stop these threats,” said Basu, before his shocking admission that “we are making arrests on a near daily basis”. Good and bad news The ONT guesses.
“Traditionally, vocational subjects have attracted students considered to be of low ability, or who are looking for an easy qualification. But my students, past and present, are passionate, committed, and deserve every chance to be successful in whichever subjects they choose. Students who take vocational subjects have a clear idea of the path they wish to take. They know what they want to do once they leave the comfort of compulsory education.”
Funny how AMC was the winner. Their predecessor Rambler made nice cars.
Clean, wholesome Sweden not so angelic after all. Largest mosque in Sweden damaged by arson. Sweden’s largest Shiite mosque, which has thousands of members, has been badly damaged by a raging fire in the northern Stockholm suburb of JakobsFerg, in what police suspect was an arson attack.
‘What’s going on in your camp?’ an Obama aide, David Simas, asked Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook.
Roger Goodell, NFL Commish, consistently inconsistent. Marijuana is bad, bad and bad. We look at it from a medical standpoint. So if people feel that it has a medical benefit, the medical advisers have to tell you that. We have joint advisers, we also have independent advisers, both the NFLPA and the NFL, and we’ll sit down and talk about that. But we’ve been studying that through our advisers. To date, they haven’t said this is a change we think you should make that’s in the best interests of the health and safety of our players. If they do, we’re certainly going to consider that. But to date, they haven’t really said that.
You envision carjacking as a crime in a bad neighborhood. Hell you can be carjacked while in the convenience of your own home. Many high-end cars now use a keyless start system, which means they can be unlocked simply by having a fob nearby.
Gray, who is the author of the 2016 Free to Learn: Why Unleashing the Instinct to Play Will Make Our Children Happier, More Self-Reliant, and Better Students for Life, says that a cultural shift towards a more interventionist approach to child rearing is having dire consequences. "Over the same period of time that there has been a gradual decline in play," he told Reason's Nick Gillespie, "there are well documented, gradual, but ultimately huge increases in a variety of mental disorders in childhood—especially depression and anxiety."

What were the Allied Powers to do? A Scottish surgeon-and-botanist duo had an idea: stuff the wounds full of moss. OUCH, that is going to leave a mark!
