I too found that biography to be very entertaining and informative. It was interesting how Grant spent the last several months of his life writing for most hours of almost every day. He dove into it, and apparently gave Twain's publish

Yes, the point of a mortgage in the US is mostly to locking in a monthly payment in a manner that allows for homes to be sold at a much higher price than their previous sale. It's about increasing wealth, and it's not necessarily

It's a good idea for Mexico City to substantially increase green space. However, it's also a good idea for the city to augment its air transport infrastructure. The AMLO government has made a bold decision, and time will tell how

I think they only work in an expensive way. The efficiency of our farm to fridge food economy is based on packaging and transport methods, and those methods are what cause the waste. Many people would love to pay a little more for zero wast

That's exactly what I was thinking. $5 to $7.20 in four years isn't ideal, but seems like so many other essential goods and services have increased at a much higher rate over that period of time.

In a profit and loss system, it is often the loss part that gives the best lessons into how the market works. Being fired is at least a very good learning opportunity, although certainly not an easy one.

This reminds me of something I recently read (can't recall what) where I learned that much of Argentina's pre WWII policy was based on supporting their land owning agricultural class. This only grew during WWII since the world nee

It's interesting to consider all of the wild and toxic substances that artists have worked with throughout the millennia. In addition to explaining the chemical properties of the art, such substances maybe go a long way in explaining t

Right, and also why would he care so much about grocery stores in America when he's in Russia and reviewing military and diplomatic intel about the US? "They have grocery stores that have more items than our stores" - boring.

Probably a state law or administrative policy established this practice as both proof that the execution followed appropriate and customary practices as well as a sense of closure for the community/victims.

Pele supported AYSO in the US back in 1970. Associating his fame with this youth soccer group certainly played a big part in growing the game in the US. As the sport continues to grow in this country, I think it's fair to say that he&#

So many things are different. Two things are that Madoff, unlike SBF, admitted to fraud as his company blew up. Also SBF's relationship with the Bahamas is certainly a complicating matter that will only serve to help him as he delays t

I agree, and to me this seems to be describing something very inappropriate. I of course would like more info on this subject.

Yes, kids in baseball love to emulate every little thing they see big leaguers do. That's why in the 1980s and '90s Big League Chew was huge, but maybe parents thought it was a little too much like chewing tobacco and they sought

As someone who works from home, I do something similar to that as well. Morning meetings at the kitchen table, midday at my desk, and late afternoon work is done from my sofa. The cats and I stay busy.
