发帖数: 1 | 1 Michael Lewis's book 'The Fifth Risk' recognized competence as a key
attribute in political appointments. While previous administrations have
installed incompetent political hacks at various jobs (Heckuva job, Brownie)
, the Trump administration has done worse - they've appointed people who
actually want to dismantle the very organizations which justify government
involvement in public affairs; HHS, USDA, FDA, etc.
Alex Azar, the HHS secy is a prime example. He was a pharma lobbyist turned

Whoops.
In remarks stressing that the U.S. government had “absolutely nothing
to do with” the anti-Islam film that has touched off violence in the Middle
East, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton yesterday sought to quash Arab
concerns that the “disgusting and reprehensible” movie was somehow
produced or condoned by American officials. However, Clinton’s attempt to
distance the U.S. from “Innocence of Muslims”–and, by extension, its
felonious producer–may be complicated by the revel... 阅读全帖 |

Oddly, no names of the suspected rapists are provided. Why is that?
Chicago Police detectives continued to question two men Monday in
connection with the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl who was pistol-
whipped and carried unconscious into a truck on the South Side.
The South Side, huh? That’s the community once organized by Obama. Heckuva

The girl was taking out the trash Friday night in the 400 block of East

Barack Obama sure has brought the world together. Now everyone hates us.
Heckuva job, Bammy!
Despite downgrading the trip, many see Obama’s arrival as the sequel to
his 2009 visit to Cairo, where he announced a “new beginning” with the
Muslim world. Four years later, that doesn’t auger well for renewed efforts
in Israel and the West Bank. According to the latest survey by the Pew
Research Center’s Global Attitudes P... 阅读全帖 |

While Obama is out talking about his legacy, and Clinton is out talking
about making history as the first woman president, Trump (the narcissist)
asks for the American people’s help in draining the swamp and making
America great again. That’s one heckuva contrast to end on. |

This was Barack Obama's chance.
Here was an opportunity to cut himself free, in a stroke, from the baggage
that’s weighed his presidency down — the implausible expectations, the
utopian dreams, the messianic hoo-ha.
Here was a place to draw a clean line between himself and all the
overzealous Obamaphiles, at home and abroad, who poured their post-Christian

It's my favorite coach (Rick Adelman) I've ever played for. I know Kevin (
Martin) real well from our Sacramento days. (Luis) Scola had a heckuva year.
And I finally get to play with Yao (Ming) instead of guarding his big butt.
The team is pretty solid."

My favorite physical activity is table tennis, which also happens to be the
world's best brain sport. It is highly aerobic and gets both the upper and
lower body moving in every which way — twisting, bending down low, reaching
up high, and shuffling from side to side. Plus, it gives your brain one
heckuva workout.
Also known as "ping-pong," the game is great for hand-eye coordination and
reflexes (cerebellum and parietal lobes). You have to focus (prefrontal
cortex) so you ... 阅读全帖 |

you're gonna love it. Mistakes happen in the cigar industry, and this is
one of them: Padilla Habano is a 90-rated handmade from Nicaragua normally
packed in boxes of 25. Yet we received a load of boxes last month (2,648 to
be exact) in two different sizes, all mistakenly packed 20 to a box.
Seemingly minor, but a human blunder like this wreaks havoc on our operation

find many reviews how it actually sounds. Deals for 1/12/11 only.

w*******y 发帖数: 60932 | 14 Just received email from Bruce Hornsby fan club that his new album Bride of
Noisemakers will be available for $3.99 on May 2nd only.
I do not see any detail that clarifies if it is MP3 purchase only or the 2-
cd album. The product description on the Amazon page lists "Audio CD" so it
may be the physical album. Either way it is a heckuva price if you are a
Hornsby fan.
