Joe Biden promised results for all Americans during his first 100 days is office. POTUS can now say mission accomplished on day 50.

The Democrats alone have passed one of the most significant American economic packages in the history of the USA. 

Coastal Flooding Exposure

An alarming global analysis of subsidence, relative sea-level change, and coastal flood exposure report has been released.

Climate-induced sea-level rise and vertical land movements, including natural and human-induced subsidence in sedimentary coastal lowlands, combine to change relative sea levels around the world’s coasts. Although this affects local rates of sea-level rise, assessments of the coastal impacts of subsidence are lacking on a global scale.

Brits and Americans are divided by attitudes toward the House of Windsor. Why are there different reactions to Harry and Meghan Markle’s Oprah interview? What is the attraction to learn about The Royals who're among the most dysfunctional families on earth?

Happy International Women’s Day. Every day we say they are essential and we support women in our homes, workplaces, and society.

Please, allow me to introduce my grand-baby, Olivia who our family calls LIV and I am GB, that's short for Grandpa Bob. She surely does like to challenge her mother Sabrina.

International Women's Day is a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women's equality.

On May 25, less than a year ago, 46-year-old George Floyd was stopped by police after a local Minneapolis shop employee claimed he had tried to pass a counterfeit $20 bill. The Minnesota athlete had been a talented young American football player but drifted into a life of petty crime and addiction to painkillers.

Missing My Chick Favorites

CHIC COREA WAS A KEYBOARDIST OF OUR GENERATION - I’ve been devastated by the passing of Chick Corea.  I think of him in the same way the generation before me thought of Duke Ellington or Count Basie, Bill Evans, Wynton Kelly, Barry Harris, Sun Ra, I could go on, knowing there are many other keyboardists and pianist-band leaders who stood out in previous generations and became the Jazz standard-bearers of their generation.

Stylish Decor?

As you can clearly see, when it comes to decorating in general, the smarter fairer sex always tend to have the upper hand in taste.

Inside this balcony is probably a man cave and a male retreat or sanctuary inside a bachelor pad. The term is a metaphor describing an area where men and their friends can do as they please.

The Crucial Voice of America

The recent turmoil at the Voice of America, created by Trump’s attempts last year to politicize that global example of a free press, reminded me of an incident that occurred one evening during the twenty-five years I spent as the manager of Blues Alley, the Georgetown jazz club in Washington, D.C.       

46 Days With POTUS 46

Age is just a number and when it got to 78-yer-old President Joe Biden he immediately halted the real count. 

Democrats got the job done today while Republicans obstructed until the last minute when they melted down.

The whole world is watching and realizing America is back. A time where experience is going to be valued higher than BS.

We The People have spoken and everyone really agrees. An approval of POTUS 46 Joe Biden is the decree.
