  • I’m sorry if the guy is ill, but if he can’t do his job, he needs to step down.

  • Researchers believe this strategy was effective because members of the guard were deployed in busy areas and tourist corridors, "where opportunistic property crime tends to occur and where visible deterrence is most likely to be effective."

  • The Justice Department, which saw its attorney ranks shrink by a fifth, has relaxed its hiring requirements for some positions.

    “We are fast-tracking applications to bring talented professionals on board,” Harmeet K. Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s civil rights division, declared in a recruiting ad posted on social media this spring.

  • Raised catholic, did religious ed, catholic high school, made to go to church every week and on holy days of obligation. Then I went off to college, and dutifully got up the first sunday and went to church. While I was mumbling along with the Nicene creed, I thought, “But I don’t believe this stuff; in fact, I disagree with most of it.” I left quietly before the creed was over, and never voluntarily went back. I guess realizing I'm an atheist helped. 😄
