Her final turn is a field report that will “focus on a group of former Bernie Sanders supporters who are now supporting Donald Trump. She promises it’s going to be “really funny,” and will provide a “nice farewell.”” Well, good. I thought it was kind of cold last night when Trevor didn’t mention her at …

A Kodak Moment
So it was 1945, in the summer, and Eastman Kodak started getting some strange complaints. You see, in addition to Kodachrome and mass market films used by amateur and professional photographers, they also did work in Medicine, inventing and producing X-Ray plates (not that it’s the only market, they’re also used in in manufacturing to …

New York Stories
I’ve been past the park Eric Garner was murdered in. It’s not much really, just a dinky little triangle between 3 streets across from a convenience store with a few trees, some benches, and grass that has seen too many feet.
