Day 12 - #JayPeak #Vermont 337 inches they say so far this year. Not much wind, the sun is out, and the mountain is in great shape. The skins came out of the pack for a climb to the summit from the top of ‘The Bonny’ (avoided the line for the tram). #ski #skiing #skitheeast #vt #skivt #skivermont 🎿

These open-ended talks suit Putin just fine. Whereas Trump views them as a way to end a “ridiculous” war, Putin sees them as a stage in a larger conflict - The Economist. Putin believes Trump is not just impatient, but manipulable.

In the classical world, to claim power over the sea was a clear sign of the ABUSE of power: Xerxes having the sea whipped, Roman plutocrats building over it. I think I know what they would have thought about RE-NAMING it!
