FOXBORO, MA - JANUARY 10: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots gestures as he lines up in the shotgun formation against the Baltimore Ravens during the 2010 AFC wild-card playoff game at Gillette Stadium on January 10, 2010 in Foxboro, Massachusetts. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images)
Tom Brady and the New England Patriots pulled off a dramatic come-from-behind win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, culminating with Tom Brady's touchdown to rookie Kenbrell Thompkins with 5 seconds to go. You'd expect the Patriots radio crew on 98.5 The Sports Hub to enjoy the moment, but analyst Scott Zolak did much more than that. He went off the deep end. Have a listen via the Airchecked Twitter feed... There's quite a lot here, so let's break down Zolak's performance one line at a time. SZ: "BRADY'S BACK!" Fair enough. Brady was coming off a disappointing loss to the Bengals last week in which he failed to throw a touchdown pass for the first time in 53 games. SZ: "THAT'S YOUR QUARTERBACK!" I mean, sure, if you're a Patriots fan. He's right. Tom Brady is certainly the current quarterback of the New England Patriots. SZ: "WHO LEFT THE BUILDING?!" He's calling out the fans who left Gillette Stadium when the Patriots trailed late in the game. Does he want a list? Pretty sure that would violate the Fourth Amendment. Why do you hate America, Scott? SZ: "UNICORNS! SHOW PONIES!" Now things are just getting weird. Maybe he's making a Charlie the Unicorn reference? Or maybe there are hallucinogenic drugs involved? Or both? SZ: "WHERE'S THE BEEF?!" Now he's just quoting Wendy's commercials from 1984. SZ: "BOY, WHEN YOU THOUGHT YOU'D SEEN IT ALL. WHEN IT'S TOTAL DESPAIR. FOURTEEN YEARS IN THE LEAGUE. THIS SITUATION AFTER [THE] SITUATION[S] HE'S BEEN THROUGH. AND TO ELEVATE A ROOKIE." I don't know about "total despair" Scott. The Patriots were 5-0 when they suffered their first loss last week. They would have fallen to 5-2 if not for this comeback, which would surely be disappointing, but in no way could that be considered "total despair." At all. As for Thompkins, he's a rookie, but he had three touchdowns in the first five games of his career. It's not like he hadn't been 'elevated' before, although none of his previous scores compared to the magnitude of this moment. SZ: "MY GOD!" You can't help but think of WWE announcer Jim Ross as Zolak delivers this final line. It's really the perfect way to end an out of body experience doubling as a monologue. You have to feel a litle bit for play-by-play man Bob Socci, who first has his game-winning call stepped on by Zolak and then is silenced completely as his partner goes opens up his playbook of non sequiturs. Ponies, unicorns, and 80's pop culture references certainly make for a memorable call, though. [Airchecked]

Belle Shenkman Music Programme
Belle Shenkman Music Programme
Musicians from the Royal College of Music
Join Naomi Sullivan (soprano saxophone), Dominic Childs (alto saxophone), Michaela Stapleton (tenor saxophone) and Neil McGovern (baritone saxophone) for a programme of music inspired by the paintings in Room 8.
Belle Shenkman
Musicians from the Royal College of Music perform a different programme each week, thanks to generous support from Dasha Shenkman, in memory of Belle Shenkman.
The works in each concert are selected by the students themselves, who take inspiration from visits to the Gallery and talks on the paintings in the rooms where they are due to perform.
All concerts are on Fridays from 6–7pm, admission free.
When the National Gallery was founded in 1824, one of its stated aims was to provide a resource for the inspiration of all young artists, not just visual artists. It is a pleasure to bring together a union of art and music.
Music has been performed to the public at the National Gallery since 1922, when Royal College of Music students performed in Room 36 on Tuesday 18 July.
Students of the college have also performed at the Gallery since 1996 as part of the Belle Shenkman Music Programme.

39 year old woman | Chelsea, MA, USA | Seeking men 30-45 within 10 miles
Very shy, but once I get to know someone I can be a big goofball. Love to laugh. :D
I'm loving, kind, friendly, sweet and shy, but only for a little bit. I can be a real goofball once I get comfy with someone. I love to go out and have some drinks, but other times I just love to stay home, watch some movies and yes.... I like to cuddle. I'm short and a little on the think side. I'm latina and love my Puerto Rican heritage. I'm a family first type of person. My kids are my priority. Looking for someone respectful, hard working, caring and honest. I'm not the high maintenance type. Although it would be great to go out for dinner every once in a while, it's not something that I HAVE to do. Going out to a game or wrestling is more my thing, lol.
I have Cats, Dogs
I like Birds, Other
Love going to the movies, or a night out at a sports game is great, but most of all just staying home watching some scary movies makes my night.

I started painting at the age of three, prompting my parents to enroll me in classes at the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Institute of Art. A native of Ohio, I gave up painting in high school to pursue a career in science, only to discover that my true calling was painting - much later in life. My home and studio are located in a remote, scenic mountain region on the Central Coast of California, where vineyards flourish alongside farms growing all types of fruits and vegetables. The landscapes I see just driving to and from town, 18 miles away, are my frequent inspirations. As a business, I once led tours of local wineries and did a stint in wine marketing. My abiding love and fascination with wine and the good life and people...

Upcycled Wooden Candleholder
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Change the look of your space without spending a great deal of money. Simply save an old staircase baluster and use it to create your own Upcycled Wooden Candleholder. This project has a rustic, woodsy feel, making it a great shabby chic accessory.
- Old baluster, approximately 2 inches in diameter
- Measuring tape
- Miter saw
- 2-by-4, scrap
- Pencil
- Hot glue gun
- Drill
- 3/32-inch drill bit and screwdriver bit
- 2-inch wood screws, four
- 1-inch wooden candle cups, two
- Acrylic latex paint
- Paintbrush
- Sandpaper
Determine the portions of the baluster you would like for two candlestick holders. Cut an 8-inch and a 10-inch section from the portions using a miter saw.
Cut a 6-inch length from a 2-by-4 scrap using a miter saw.
Lay the 2-by-4 flat on your work surface. Stand the cut balusters on the 2-by-4. Center and evenly space them down the center of the board. Use hot glue to temporarily hold them in place.
Turn the 2-by-4 over with the bottom facing up. Using a 3/32-inch drill bit, drill a pilot hole through the bottom of the board and up through the center of one baluster. Repeat with the other baluster. Insert a 2-inch wood screw in each pilot hole and attach. Sink the heads of the screws below the bottom surface of the board.
Hot glue a 1-inch wooden candle cup to the top of each baluster to temporarily hold. Drill a pilot hole down through the center of the cup and into the top of the baluster. Insert wood screws to attach.
Paint the holder's base, balusters and candle cups using an acrylic latex paint. Craft paint or leftover wall paints are suitable choices for this project. They cleanup with soap and water and are available in a variety of color choices. Allow the paint to dry.
Lightly sand the painted surfaces. This will remove paint in random areas, providing a worn, aged appearance.
Balusters are typically 36 to 42 inches long. Depending on whether the remaining portions of the baluster have a pleasing design, you will have enough to make another candlestick holder for yourself or as a gift.
- If you prefer a pair of candlestick holders that can be separated when displayed, cut two 3 1/2-inch pieces from the 2-by-4 and center one cut baluster piece on each.

Pony Club Breaks The Ice Two Dozen Young Riders Display Their Skills In Spring Show At Interstate Fairgrounds
Carey Homan's parents held their breath when their 11-year-old daughter fell three times from her horse.
Each time, they watched their tow-haired fourth-grader climb on her horse, Ali, to finish the ride.
"I know this kid likes to ride. Anyone who gets back up after three falls must love what she's doing," said Carey's mom, Lou Homan.
Riding thrills definitely outnumbered the spills Sunday during the Spokane Pony Club's spring "Icebreaker" at the Spokane Interstate Fairgrounds.
The club, now in its third year, hosts the annual show to help horses and riders shake off winter dust and test their muscles.
About two dozen young members - most of them girls - took part, along with another 20 show jump-riders who use the event to get ready for serious competitions over the next three months.
Sunday's program ranged from basic dressage - guiding a horse over a flat course - to three types of jumping.
"I must have pulled my head down to look at the ground," Carey said later, after finishing her bruising morning "hunters" competition - a series of hurdle jumps - in the fairgrounds arena.
Her parents said Carey joined the 25-member Pony Club last year at the urging of a family friend.
Considered the equivalent of a 4-H group for riders, the club has hundreds of chapters across the country. Members ride ponies and horses - the difference being a pony stands 14-1/4 hands tall or smaller. A hand, the traditional measure for horses, is four inches in length.
In Carey's case, she's been riding horses since she was 4 years old, or about seven hands tall.
"This was her first real competition with Ali. I'm sure that's why they had a little trouble," Lou Homan said after her daughter ended her ride.
"What the club provides is a complete package, helping her with riding skills. They also emphasize safety and animal grooming," the mother said.
"All I know is, her tack has never been so clean before, and she's grooming her horse like it's important."
Riding has been a popular activity in the Spokane area for generations, and it seems to be going through a growth spurt, said riding instructor Gary Striker.
He started teaching riding in 1990, when he and only one other teacher were in the phone book. Now there are five, with each getting more than a dozen riders interested in skills either for pleasure or show.
"People need groups like the Pony Club," said Striker. "This is a sport and it has do be done safely. They emphasize athletic conditioning of the animal and careful instruction for the rider."

1963 Ports: Lighter color than the other Ports in this tasting.
Nose: A. Palate A.
My #1, Group's #2 (61 pts). Tasted blind.
Vintage Port (Fem Bord, Trondheim): Slightly floral nose, hint of menthol. In the mouth it's just dead fruit and alcohol to me.
A Portnight (Fem Bord, Trondheim): A kind but small wine in every respect
WOW! Considering the age of this wine, it was a joy to drink. Upon opening, the cork crumble into the bottle, but not until the cork screw was screwed in. As expected, lots of thick sediment and plenty of fine sediment went through the screen of the aerator. Brick orange in color with enough life that this wine will go on longer.
Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1)
What can I say, a real treat to drink a 50 year old wine bottled during Kennedy's time and so well drinkable. Not quite as nice as the prior bottle but the fill in this one was slightly lower. Alcoholic taste which burned off and left dark fruit, figs, tea. Pretty long finish which eroded over time.

I really thought I was going to see Ride. I had promised myself I'd go see Ride, because I'd seen Run The Jewels three times in the last twelve months and Ride is one of those bands I didn't think I was ever going to get to see. But how can you say no to these guys? (And, also, Ride's gonna be in NYC, so whatever.) After having one of the most underrated albums of 2014 and one of the most lauded of 2015, RTJ are on a roll, and every time they get onstage it's like this amicably incendiary triumph. "We're gonna burn this stage to the motherfucking ground!" Killer Mike promised in the beginning, and immediately I figured, "Yeah, this was the right decision."
You know what you're getting with a RTJ set -- they'll repeat certain jokes between shows, they only have two albums to draw from. But it's one of the most satisfying live experiences going right now, with El-P and Mike just blitzing through barn-burners one after another. But it's also palpable how these two are great friends, and have an unbeatable charisma together. Mike rapped the whole show with his arm in a sling because his shoulder's broken; El-P apologized to everyone in the front of the crowd who didn't feel like jumping before they went into "Close Your Eyes (And Count To Fuck)." They brought Mike's wife out and got the crowd to wish her a happy birthday. It felt, as always, like you were just hanging out with these two while they had a great time bulldozing a festival crowd with "Blockbuster Night, Pt.1" or "Lie, Cheat, Steal" or the always emotive closer "A Christmas Fucking Miracle." In the beginning of the set, they walked out, as they always do, to "We Are The Champions." That used to feel cheeky before they really blew up with RTJ2. Now it just feels honest.
Run The Jewels join the long list of artists that will have their own Beats 1 radio show. The rap duo has just announced that the inaugural edition of their program, which is called WRTJ mimicking terrestrial radio call letters, will begin tonight. It'll air every Friday at 9PM EST. They've offered a quick preview… More »
There's a great funny-because-it's-true joke in Wayne's World that captures how the rest of the U.S. views Delaware.

Run The Jewels closed out this weekend's Northside Festival in Brooklyn at 50 Kent, and they brought out Nas during their set to perform his 2002 track "Made You Look."

Run The Jewels' perfectly ridiculous, Kickstarter-funded benefit album Meow The Jewels continues to take shape.

After spending some more time at Primavera, it's just striking how civilized of a festival it is. Things are reasonably priced! You spend the whole time looking out at the water!

We named Run The Jewels' second full-length, RTJ2, our number one favorite album of 2014, and we weren't alone. Regardless of how good the duo's 2013 debut was, something about RTJ2 set their reputation the fuck off. Now, some of us wait with bated breath for their next single to drop, and El-P knows it.

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
Sitting out frustrates Alexander
St. Francis - Bucks forward Joe Alexander remains out of practice due to a strained right hamstring he suffered prior to the opening of training camp.
"I'm getting better slowly," Alexander said Friday after the Bucks' workout at the Cousins Center. "Every day is an improvement. The healing process is long. I just am trying to stay mentally strong.
"The hamstring is a tough injury because it just takes time. If you come back too soon, you're going to end up hurting yourself in the long run."
The Bucks made Alexander the eighth overall selection in the 2008 draft, but he got off to a slow start last season due to another injury which sidelined him during training camp. The Bucks are facing a deadline of Oct. 31 to pick up the first option year, or the third year on his rookie-scale deal.
"The contract isn't frustrating; I'm not worried about it," he said. "It's frustrating to not be playing, especially after a summer where I really put in a lot of work. I've always put in work, but I felt like I made a lot of improvements this summer and I was ready to step up and do what I wanted to do on this team.
"I'm not able to do that, and that's frustrating."

MasterCard credit cards to be accepted at Sam's Club
By Jeremy M. Simon
MasterCard-branded credit cards will soon become another form of accepted payment at Sam's Club, following an expected announcement shortly from the chain of warehouse-style discount stores. The first-ever acceptance of MasterCard credit card payments by Sam's Club will come at the exclusion of Visa credit cards.
That decision marks a victory for MasterCard in its ongoing struggle with Visa, as the two credit card associations compete for market share. Visa is gearing up to become a publicly traded company, after MasterCard's stock went public this year.
Meanwhile, the announcement by Sam's Club also would represent a major change for the unit of Wal-Mart Stores, with the 589 Sam's Club stores in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and Canada previously only taking credit card payments from Discover Card and its own in-house cards.
Sam's Club takes Visa and MasterCard credit cards for gasoline and online purchases. Customers can also make purchases at Sam's Club locations with cash, checks and both Visa and MasterCard debit cards. American Express credit cards are not accepted.
The decision by Sam's Club to accept MasterCard but not Visa credit card payments is rare since retailers generally do not choose between the two dominant credit card associations. Those stores that want to limit their credit card brand acceptance normally group Visa and MasterCard together, and consider them as a unit against American Express, with its strong reputation but higher merchant fees, and Discover Card, with its narrower acceptance.
The addition of MasterCard may help Sam's Club to draw customers who want to pay by credit card but do not carry Discover Card, at a time when U.S. consumers are paying with plastic more frequently. Sam's Club noted that customers have been requesting that it offer more credit card payment choices.
Additionally, allowing its 47 million customers, who pay annual dues of $35, to pay with a MasterCard could give Sam's Club a much-needed lift as the retailer is losing ground domestically to rival Costco Wholesale. To begin catching up, Sam's Club needs bigger sales, with another payment option likely to support that effort.

It is almost a truism that marketing has become highly technology-intensive. A nearly ubiquitous component of any marketing technology portfolio is email marketing. In fact, there is a high probability your company is already using some form of it, even though you might not be aware of it. A related component is marketing automation. Customers often talk of these in the same breath. In this article, we will look at this distinction in some detail and also summarize what marketers should know when evaluating these technologies.

En Este Camino is a… I suppose you can call it a Mexican folk-rock album, although the rock is scarcely rocky in a rock sense, more a philosophy of exuberance than anything else. There is a lot of accordion, sharp as sunlight in your eyes. The songs snap and spark. The group has a good sense of when to hold off, when to let the accordion or the singer dribble away suggestively, leaving the song suspended for a moment before they bring everything back into focus in one catchy burst. The burst explodes, swings into the next phrase, rolls around, and suspends itself again. These tracks are at their best when they're short, when they dart in, repeat one of those catchy bursts often enough to get it embedded in your brain, then exit, leaving you with your head ringing, leaving you in the mood for more.

Range of Evidence Lends Credence to Backers of Traditional Lifestyles
NEW YORK, SEPT. 20, 2003 (Zenit) - Supporters of traditional marriage might find comfort in new data that underline the importance of the family and religious values. A lengthy article in the June issue of Population and Development Review gave an overview of the research literature on these themes. The magazine is published by the New York-based Population Council, not normally noted for its support of traditional moral values.
The article, by Linda Waite and Evelyn Lehrer, unambiguously states: "We argue that both marriage and religiosity generally have far-reaching, positive effects." Among their main points, which they back up with five pages of bibliographical references, are these:
-- Married people are less likely than unmarried people to suffer from long-term illness or disability, and they have better survival rates for some illnesses. A growing body of research also shows an association between religious involvement and improved physical health.
-- Getting married, and staying married to the same person, is associated with better mental health. Marriage is also associated with greater overall happiness. While the connection between mental health and religion is much debated, Waite and Lehrer state that studies are suggestive of a positive association between the two.
-- A large body of literature documents that married men earn higher wages than their single counterparts. Although the relationship between religion and earnings is largely un-researched the article does note that religiosity has a positive effect on educational attainment, a key determinant of success in the labor market.
-- Children raised by their own married parents do better, on average, across a range of outcomes: infant mortality; health; schooling; and avoiding having children as unmarried teen-agers. Studies also document that parenting styles formed by religious affiliation are better for children's welfare. And kids who are religiously active themselves seem to do better at school and manage to avoid dangerous behavior.
-- Emotional and physical satisfaction with sex are higher for married people.
-- Married couples have notably lower levels of domestic violence.
Trying to explain the causal factors behind these results, Waite and Lehrer observe that both marriage and religion lead to positive outcomes by providing social support and integration. They also encourage healthy behaviors and lifestyles. Notably, the benefits from marriage apply to those who make a lifetime commitment. Both divorce and cohabitation significantly reduce the positive effects.
A payoff
A recent study by the Heritage Foundation put a figure on just how much marriage is worth in economic terms. Single mothers who married would see an increase of $10,199 to $11,599 in their median family incomes, said Heritage Foundation analyst Patrick Fagan. He wrote a report on the subject with other Heritage researchers. The Washington Times reported on the study May 28.
The Heritage researchers said that new light has been shed on the topic by the ongoing Fragile Families and Child Well-Being Study. That five-year study, conducted by researchers with Princeton and Columbia universities, involves some 4,700 new parents who are low-income and typically unmarried.
Marriage has a significant impact for single mothers who don't work, the study found. These welfare mothers who remain single will live in poverty because welfare benefits rarely, if ever, lift a family out of poverty. "By contrast, if the mother marries the child's father, the poverty rate drops dramatically to 35%," the researchers said.
And the psychological benefits of family life were highlighted in a study published last month in Denmark. Adults with children are less likely to commit suicide than those without, the Associated Press said in its Aug. 11 report on the study. Likewise, young children were found to add an extra layer guarding against suicide for women. The study involved 18,611 people in Denmark who committed suicide from 1981 to 1997.
"It is widely expected that childbearing is most often a positive life event that may prevent people from ending their life," Drs. Ping Qin and Preben Bo Mortensen of Aarhus University in Denmark said in the study.
The researchers compared data on suicide victims and a control group. Nearly 47% of suicide victims had no children, and fewer than 23% had two or more children. Only 2% of suicide victims had a child younger than age 2.
The results confirm some previous data but also "fly in the face" of some assumptions about the impact of having children, said psychologist David Clark of Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center in ...

text: Unrooted, In my last post, I also forgot to mention that IF the waders that you ordered don't work well for her, you may also want to try the "Women's Chena River Waders" from Redington. http://www.redington.com/prod.php?k=62166&p=RDT5-WW001&u=WW001 You can Google them to find product reviews and retailers. While developing these waders a couple of years ago, some folks from Redington actually came to one of our Northwest Women Flyfishers club meetings to measure all the gals (or those who would volunteer their measurements) so they could design a pair of waders that actually fit REAL women. I don't own a pair of these, but some of my friends do. When I've tried them on, I personally find that these waders tend to run a little short. (I'm 5/8", so if your wife is 5'7" I'd recommend going for the "long" size.) The Redington folks also asked the gals for their input regarding other wader features that we do/don't like, and incorporated a number of these suggestions into the waders -- including a fleece-lined handwarming pocket. The booties will be sized better for a woman's foot, as well. My apologies for not mentioning this earlier. I just thought of them. --KIM--

Now announcing your life online
With news of pending fatherhood, Québec photographer Patrice Laroche got an idea.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 7 photoszoom
With news of pending fatherhood, Québec photographer Patrice Laroche got an idea.
After searching online to ensure its uniqueness, Laroche and partner Sandra Denis went to a local gas station and posed with the air hose to her belly button. They returned every couple of months, wearing the same clothes, shooting in the same light.
Shortly after baby Justine arrived in August, Laroche posted the series of pics on his public Facebook page. Aside from smiles and comments from a few friends, reaction was limited until last month, when his niece spotted the series on another website.
After that?
"It explodes," Laroche explains, in a thick French accent. "I lost control during the two weeks that followed. All the websites in the world, they take them, surely hundreds of thousands."
In these times of ubiquitous connection, people are sharing announcements of major life events on social media websites. And some bring creativity to the fore.
"The majority of brides (to-be) are sharing it within hours on Facebook," says Jamie Miles, editor of New York-based website TheKnot.com. According to a survey they conducted with Mashable last month, eight per cent updated their Facebook relationship status within minutes of getting engaged, 31 per cent updated within hours, 24 per cent had updated it by the next day and 23 per cent within a week.
Aside from personal Facebook and Twitter accounts, there are dedicated announcement pages on Pinterest, TheKnot.com and BabyCenter Blog.
"In the community people are often sharing what they're doing on Facebook and social media about their pregnancy," says BabyCenter Canada editor Ann Elisabeth Samson. Discussion threads about when and how to share the news are growing, she adds.
Last year Facebook created a feature for users to announce an engagement or wedding. Friends can click on the announcement to write a congratulatory post on the user's timeline.
While there is also discussion about how public people want to be, some are undeniably happy to share their clever methods of announcing happy news far and wide.
"We are seeing people being a little more daring," Miles says. "We love seeing more creative announcements." One groom-to-be created a videogame, inviting friends and family to play, with news of the engagement at the end.
One current trend is catching the proposal on camera and posting the result, she says. "It's fun when you see more of the couple's personality," she says. "The more personality you can put into the announcement, the more fun it's going to be for people to hear about it or share that story with someone else."
Some photo shoots are quite inspired, she adds, using their neighbourhood, hangout spots, where they met or shared a first date.
It's something to show future children and grandchildren, Miles adds.
The Star would like to see — and share — some of your creative announcements. Send them to email@example.com . Include 'announcement' in the subject.
Meanwhile, how is fatherhood for Laroche five months in?
"Very, very, very, wait a second I'm looking for the word," Laroche says. "I miss sleep."

Elizabeth Warren
Obama Hates on Democrats
Elizabeth Warren Targets Clinton Foundation Donors
Tear Down These Tariffs
Now she knows how I feel. In a statement posted to her campaign website, Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts laments that the Obama administration has kept secret the details of the Trans-Pacific Partnership—TPP for short—the decade-in-the-making free trade agreement between 12 Pacific Rim countries that will soon be put to a vote in Congress. "If the American people would be opposed to a trade agreement if they saw it," she writes in bolded text, "then that agreement should not become law of the United States."
Let the Trolling Commence: Liberals Take Shots at Hillary Clinton
Many liberals support Hillary Clinton because she's not a Republican and wouldn't it be awesome to have our first woman president and stuff. Other liberals have actual beliefs when it comes to politics, and aren't convinced by Clinton's campaign rationale: "I recently became a grandmother and I really want to be president." Now that Hillary is actually running, some of these liberals are starting to troll her, which is kind of amusing to watch.
As Hillary Stays Mum on Pacific Trade Deal, Corporate Backers Donate Millions to Clinton Foundation
Liberals like Elizabeth Warren want Hillary Clinton—who is potentially just days away from announcing a second White House run (her first was a failure)—to take a position on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), a free trade deal backed by the Obama administration.
Warren: Hillary Clinton Needs to State Her Position on Trade
Elizabeth Warren is Attacking Hillary Clinton's Most Loyal Campaign Donors (Again)
Democrats love Elizabeth Warren. They just don't want her anywhere near the levers of power. They'd prefer to see Warren focus on what she does best: attacking Wall Street. In a series of tweets posted Friday, she did just that:
