Start holding China responsible for what N Korea does. They are the only ones who have economic leverage over them. Start putting sanctions on China , beside the one bank. It's worth a try instead of a military option. -

North Korea claims to have test-launched its first ICBM The launch appeared to be North Korea’s most successful missile test yet. North Korea claimed to have successfully tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile in a launch Tuesday, marking what the rogue regime called the “final step” in creating a “powerful nuclear state that can strike anywhere on Earth.” http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/07/04/north-korea-claims-to-have-test-launched-its-first-icbm.html -

If Watkins can stay healthy he will get his big payday either here or elsewhere. There is no question he is a elite WR and would be lights out with a franchise QB.

Smith was one of 18 Pro Football Hall of Famers who were guests of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft on a recent eight-day goodwill trip to Israel. Jim Brown, Joe Montana, “Mean” Joe Greene, Willie Lanier, Roger Staubach and others, including Smith’s wife, Carmen, gathered in Boston two weeks ago, where they boarded a Boeing 747 chartered by Kraft. Smith has visited more than a dozen foreign countries. But Israel, he said, was the trip of a lifetime. “To walk where Jesus walked, to see where all of the miracles happened, it had such an impact on me and everyone in our party,” he said. “It was a life-changing experience. You could truly feel the presence of God there.” https://pilotonline.com/sports/columnist/harry-minium/bruce-smith-s-trip-to-israel-was-a-life-changing/article_8eaa019e-c9a3-562c-af73-b2763dd8bd85.html

Why So Many Insurers Are Leaving Obamacare Insurers might have been less likely to exit if more states had expanded Medicaid under Obamacare. Before Obamacare, insurers could reject customers they thought would be too sick and too expensive. The Affordable Care Act was written with the idea that states would expand Medicaid, the insurance program for the poor, to cover people earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or $16,400 for a single adult. But a 2012 Supreme Court case made that expansion optional, and so far 19 states have rejected the expansion. People earning below 100 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $12,000 annually, in those states aren’t eligible for subsidies to buy private insurance on the Obamacare exchanges or, in most cases, for Medicaid. They fall in an insurance no-man’s land, the “coverage gap.” https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2017/05/why-so-many-insurers-are-leaving-obamacare/526137/ Column What ails the Obamacare insurance exchanges?

Very interesting article thanks for posting. It sure looks like McD is the right answer for a "successful culture". A real franchise QB is still needed though. -
