Felicity Huffman’s Sentence Is Lenient, But It’s Also FairIt’s only a small punishment in our American context that expects years or even decades in jail for relatively small offenses. People spend longer time in jail for traffic tickets. Fair isn't the word that applies here. No it's not fair! It's extremely wrong but tremendously fair...comparing it to...let's say...the Trump litter of losers. Tell me, Daddy didn't graciously donate higher 'alumni' $$$ to expedite (oversee) their acceptance. Oh...just like Freddie Sr did 4 Pres. NumbNuts?

County Fair to avoid going with his parents, police sayA 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of making false claims about a possible active shooter at the Los Angeles County Fair. He did so because he was hoping to avoid going to the fair with his parents. Why do so many parents force their kids to go to dumb stuff? A 22 he might have just told them no. This is L.A. The mayor will probably give him a medal, along with the Governor.

In Britain, command of a foreign language is still à la modeRussian-speaking nannies and Arabic-speaking “lifestyle managers” are in demand Perfect example of correlation not necessarily implies causation. In Germany highly qualified talent is getting rejected without German language skills. Without consideration if that is an actual requirement to reach the desired results. Our ignorance is frustrating highly qualified immigrants and costs us dearly. For any firm interested, I am fluent in Spanish, and my French and Italian is passable. I can also hold a basic conversation in German, Russian and Arabic.
